  3. A medical device is an instrument, apparatus, implant, machineor otherrelated articles. Introduction The foremost step involved in the development of any medical device is the selection of the correct material usingclinical research services. Theselectionprocessrequiresunderstandingvarious factorssuchasphysicalperformance,manufacturing constraints, cost-effectiveness, and supply chain logistics (Sampath2020). This review focuses on the several factors involved in selecting material for the medical device industry as well asthenew developmentsin thisfield.

  4. Selectionof Materials for Medical Devices Metals,ceramics,polymersandcompositesarethemost popularmaterialsusedfordevelopingmedicaldevices. These biomaterials must be non-toxic, non-carcinogenic, chemically inert, stable and physically strong enough to withstandtheforcesimposedrepeatedlyoveralifetime. Many important factors are considered when determining if material, and its particular grade, is suitable for use or not (Sampath2020). Contd...

  5. Some of the mechanical properties that mainly drive this decision are flex strength, shearstrength, stiffness,toughness and yieldstrength. Physical (density, electrical conductivity) and chemical properties are also vital while selectingmaterialsformedical devices(Sampath2020 &Sykaras2000). Biocompatibility is a key requirement for various medical devices, especially the newer drug delivery ones that must be made of materials compatible with both the drugand the patient. Severaltestsincluding,cytotoxicity,histopathology,sensitizationandothersare usedtocheck thebiocompatibilityof medicaldevices (Sadeque2020).

  6. Thelastdecadehasseenexceptionalcontribution Recent Developments inthisField fromresearchersthathaveaddedplentyof options to the list of materials for manufacturing medical devices. Recentresearchprovidedinsightintobio-based materials and their application in the medical and health industry. This study highlighted the potential of bio-based materials and the exciting possibilities that can be achieved through the usage of these materials in themedicaldeviceindustry(Wilson2021).

  7. Zhao et al., in their research, emphasized on the use of cellulose and its application in the development of flexible sensors,optoelectronicdevices,biologicaldetection devicesand others. Cellulose &Bombyx MoriSilk The study underlined the advantages that cellulose has to offerincluding,lowcost,easyprocessability, biodegradability,renewabilityandothers(Zhao2020).

  9. Nano-biomaterials Nanomedicine has significantly contributed to themedicalandhealthindustry. Nano-biomaterials have found application in advancedtherapymedicalproductsand medicaldevices. AcryMed used silver nanoparticles to prevent bacteria-protectingbiofilmsfromformingon thesurfaceofmedical devices. Contd...

  10. These nanoparticles are antimicrobial in nature and can be inserted into the surfaceof animplant without affectingits functionality. Another company, Nanocopeia utilizes electronanoscopy to apply nanoformulated drugson thesurface of medicaldevices(Harris 2007). Inrecentyears,scientificresearchhasfocusedonthenovelapplicationsof microelectromechanicalsystems(MEMS)andnanoelectromechanicalsystems (NEMS)in biomedical applications. These devices, as well as their groundbreaking applications, have opened up new avenuesfor precise andreliable diagnostics andnovel therapeutics. Contd...
