In 2008, the world market traded 180 billion euros in medical devices. With the sale of 32 billion euros, Germany is the third largest market. There are 1,200 German companies with 120,000 employees producing medical devices – from bandages to pacemakers, from dentures to in-vitro diagnostics. In the legal field, the defining of medical devices began in 1994 during E.U. negotiations. Now, manufacturers can freely distribute their medical devices throughout the European market. However, certification of their companies and products has become their individual responsibility.
