Wait, What - There are Rules?!?!?
Description
What exactly is a medical device — and why does it matter if it’s regulated?
In this premiere episode of Device and Conquer, hosts Michelle Lott and Ti Benson unpack the surprisingly broad world of medical devices, from smart thermometers and glucose meters to fertility tech and connected implants.
You’ll hear:
The difference between drugs and devices
Real-life horror stories of unregulated (and unsafe) products that changed the industry
How the FDA, EU, and other regulators define and oversee devices differently
Why regulations aren’t just “red tape” — they protect patients and level the playing field for innovators
Plus: a rapid-fire game of Real or Ridiculous — can you guess which products are actual medical devices and which ones we made up?
Subscribe to Device and Conquer and join us each week as we untangle the messy, fascinating, and sometimes ridiculous world of medtech regulation.
