Article Summary
A medical product might pass through rigorous testing in-house, but if it can’t survive the transportation process, the efforts made to get it to market are in vain. A process called vibration testing can help avoid this problem, but a lot of people don’t understand its significance, according to a recent survey.
More than half of the 200 medical device packaging professionals who responded to a quiz conducted by DDL Inc. (Eden Prairie, MN) didn’t know that vibration testing is important. Only 46% of those surveyed said they knew the test was imperative.
