Elevating Orthopaedic Care through Materiovigilance.

Advanced medical devices serve an important role in modern medicine, particularly in orthopaedics, by improving patients' mobility and quality of life. However, the intricacy of devices such as joint replacements and spine implants raises hazards such as mechanical failures and biocompatibility difficulties. Materiovigilance, notably through India's Materiovigilance Programme of India, is critical for detecting and treating adverse events, hence assuring device safety and efficacy. Despite its relevance, hurdles such as a lack of understanding and reporting issues impede implementation. Strengthening materiovigilance through education, simplified reporting, and a supportive culture may spur innovation, enhance patient outcomes, and position India as a worldwide leader in medical device optimization.
