Criticare Announces the MEDRAD(R) Veris(R) MR Monitoring System is Approved for Marketing in Japan

Wednesday December 5 6:23 AM

The PMDA, which maintains regulatory oversight similar to that of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, granted Japanese Good Manufacturing Practice approval, clearing the final hurdle for entrance into the Japanese market. MEDRAD and Criticare previously obtained approval from Shonin, which reviews a product's operation, safety, and labeling.

Bringing the Veris MR Monitor to the Japanese market is an important milestone for both Criticare and MEDRAD and represents an exciting opportunity for continued growth of the MR Patient Monitoring business.

Criticare (www.csiusa.com) designs, manufactures, and markets cost-effective patient monitoring systems and noninvasive sensors for a wide range of hospitals and alternate health care environments throughout the world.
