Document Number: IQ-DS-001

Version: 1.0

Effective Date: [Insert Date]

Review Date: [Insert Date]

Objective

The objective of this Installation Qualification (IQ) protocol is to verify that the Device Inspection System (Vision/Microscopy) is installed correctly and operates according to specified requirements for inspecting coating defects and dimensions of Drug-Eluting Stents.

Scope

This protocol applies to the Device Inspection System utilized in the Quality Control (QC) and Research & Development (R&D) areas for the inspection of coated devices, specifically Drug-Eluting Stents.

Responsibilities

  • Validation Team: Responsible for executing the IQ protocol and documenting results.
  • Quality Assurance: Responsible for reviewing and approving the IQ protocol and results.
  • Maintenance Team: Responsible for ensuring the equipment is maintained and operational prior to IQ execution.

Prerequisites

  • Device Inspection System must be installed according to manufacturer specifications.
  • All necessary utilities and connections (power, data) must be verified and operational.
  • Personnel must be trained on the operation of the Device Inspection System.

Equipment Description

The Device Inspection System (Vision/Microscopy) is designed to detect coating defects and measure dimensions of Drug-Eluting Stents. It utilizes advanced imaging technology to ensure accurate inspections, critical for product quality.
