2.1 Differing regulatory compliances across geographies
present a big hurdle to manufacturers and distributors
Existence of National Regulatory Regulatory frameworks across the world
Authorities (NRA)
% of countries with a legal framework for medical devices is highest in the European region
(91%) and lowest in the African region (32%).

EU and FDA have different risk classifications for devices, which increases approval times and

compliance costs, especially for global players looking to diversify into new countries.

21% Countries having no legal framework for medical devices often pose risky markets for big players
62%
due to no assistance from local governments against any possible compliance issues.

Counterfeiting remains a big problem in lower-income countries where local-made (often


inferior) devices are sold off under a brand name for a premium price.
Countries with NRAs
Countries without NRAs e.g. In India, counterfeit oximeters were being sold in Kolkata by a local manufacturer due
to poor implementation of Medical Devices Rules 2019 and IPR regime.
Data not available

• Low-income countries are not attractive markets due to a lack of regulatory frameworks, substantially lower purchasing power, and counterfeiting
of devices;
• High-income countries continue to be high-revenue geographies with the EU and North America dominating the global revenue share for devices;
• IPRs and enforcement for medical devices are stringent in the developed world which makes them safer markets for patented devices.

Orphan Medical Devices need to cater to a broad diversity of symptoms and disorders that vary for patients suffering the same disease.
Rare diseases have a big impact on patients’ quality of life, thus making it imperative for orphan devices to be effective and affordable for chronic
management of disease.

Significant shortage of orphan medical devices globally due to
complex landscape of application
Over 90% of medical specialists in a US Survey indicated the need for more and specific
orphan medical devices Development flow

o 64% clinicians are dissatisfied with existing orphan medical devices;

o Only 2 countries – USA(FDA) and Japan(PMDA) have orphan device authorizations.

Special focus area - children

Lack of orphan devices affects children more, because of smaller body parts and even rarer diseases than adults;

o Prosthetics: Used after rare cancer surgery in children which will grow as the child grows;
