I would agree with the participants statements who posted before me. The FDA already has set regulations and guidelines that are established to aid companies with the creation of their devices. Most devices have to go through rigorous testing, and protocols in order to begin being marketed. However, there is always room for improvement! In order to assure that nothing goes wrong, companies can add a quality assurance branch to ensure that there products are properly working. That being said I do not believe the FDA should have anything to do with that, as the FDA only serves as a type of itinerary for companies. I suppose that in a perfect world the FDA would do quality tests for these companies, but in order to do that a lot more funds would need to be allocated to the FDA; which is mostly tax payer money, and would cause for a rise in taxes as this quality assurance branch would require many more people to be hired at the FDA. To wrap up, one thing that could be improved upon during the design process could be: more product quality tests.
