Design Verification & Validation seems to be interchangeable sometimes and can be very confusing. In medical device there is a way to separate the two. This is how I tell the difference between V&V. First, Design Verification is when a team correctly designs the device. While design validation, did the team make the correct design. Furthermore Design Verification seems to be more about testing and making sure the device is fully capable of accomplishing all FDA regulations. Design Verification and Validation are extremely need in the medical device industry. V&V are used to basically to make sure that the device achieves all requirements.
