MHRA drafts advice for users of in vitro test devices

Advice for users of in vitro testing equipment and devices has been drafted by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency for approval.

Aimed at all users, including those doing point-of-care testing, the guidance is intended to avoid problems caused by different pieces of equipment or supplies, such as blood glucose test meters, test strips and lancets, being used in combination.

The draft is open for comment until 30 June.
