Xueba is also open

Chapter 437

Even though no one could have imagined that at such a moment, Feinuo actually did such a trick!
Regulating the cobalt-chromium alloy market, this specification is really good.

Moreover, the U.S. FDA has issued a public declaration, saying that the problem of cobalt-chromium alloys is mainly due to the lack of standardization of cobalt-chromium alloy prosthetic products, and the market lacks a strict review of cobalt-chromium alloys, which has caused this series of situations.

This explanation is very general, even very vague, explaining the hazards of cobalt-chromium alloys as the reason for the uneven quality of this product.

The U.S. Food and Drug Safety Administration sent several teams to set up the Cobalt-Chromium Alloy Specification Committee and started various investigations. The person who cooperated with the investigation turned out to be Pierce, the head of Hankison Company, a subsidiary of the Fei Nuo Group.

This makes a lot of sense!
In the first week after the committee was established, the issue of cobalt chrome had a clear effect.

Within a week, a special quality inspection team under the committee conducted spot checks on more than a dozen small medical device companies that produced cobalt-chromium alloy artificial prostheses. After in-depth inspections, they found serious problems in their products, which affected the order of the medical prosthesis market. , For the related products of these companies, the FDA has strictly dealt with them, canceled their listing qualifications for related products, directly canceled the company's business license, and required these companies to resubmit their applications after rectification.

This series of reviews of companies related to cobalt-chromium alloys has made many people who pay attention to this matter breathe a sigh of relief.

Because they still believe in the FDA. After all, this is a national regulatory authority, and his words still carry a lot of weight!

However, not everyone is actively cooperating with the Fei Nuo Group. For example, at this time, many media outlets in the United States, including Global Daily, NBC TV programs, and even TNT programs that specialize in basketball, have published special reports on these matters.

Cobalt-chromium alloys have a wide audience, and users are regardless of class or race. Especially after athletes get older, many of them have to use artificial prostheses because of occupational injuries.

Knees and hips are so common!
The TNT program directly said: "The cobalt-chromium alloy matter is not over. After Mr. Bai Ye reported the news about the cobalt-chromium alloy, our program team contacted the relevant person in charge of the NBA to follow up on those members who have retired. Investigation, among the stars who retired in the early years, many of them have undergone joint replacement, but what is their current situation? We will follow up and report for you in the next week!"

NBC TV station even directly declared: "This time directly exposed the irregularity of the cobalt-chromium alloy market. As the most widely used and safest cobalt-chromium alloy in the world today, so many problems have been exposed. , as the industry leader, Fei Nuo Group should not only conduct public relations measures, but also need to pay attention to its own company's products, standardize production, publish the guidelines for the use of cobalt-chromium alloy products as soon as possible, and clearly mark its complications and sequelae , Whether products like cobalt-chromium alloy can continue to be used, we still have to remain skeptical, and hope that the FDA can protect the health of citizens in a country!"

Now Fei Nuo Group is on the cusp, but fortunately, the major medical groups have not yet come forward to speak out, are they not speaking up?
Of course not, they are busy!
First, they are verifying whether Bai Ye's conclusion is accurate, or in other words, they are exploring the situation of cobalt-chromium alloy?
Second, if there is indeed a problem with cobalt-chromium alloys, how to solve the problem?This is the key!

Each of them can see that the performance of the Fei Nuo Group at this time is already retreating, choosing to use public relations rather than a strong technical response, which itself is a failure for a medical technology company Concessions!

At this time, the Fei Nuo Group seemed to be sitting firmly on Mount Tai, very calm, as if Bai Ye's paper or the special issue of "Cell" were just rumors, and they would definitely be destroyed in a short time!

In fact, it is not the case, Feynuo is also very flustered, the characteristics of cobalt-chromium alloy determine his flaws, in Pierce's words, even some things coexist.

God is fair!
Moreover, these complications are written clearly and plainly, not to mention anything else, which drug on the market now has no complications?

Isn't this a joke?
In fact, there are all of them, but the Fei Nuo Group did not accurately write out the side effects and sequelae of the cobalt-chromium alloy prosthesis.

This is the core problem, which is equivalent to deception and concealment, the concealment of the right to know!

It even makes many patients unaware of certain complications in their own bodies!

This is a wrong thing that Fei Nuo Group has done.

In fact, it was not wrong to put this matter 20 years ago, because the level of science and technology at that time determined that the side effects of cobalt-chromium alloys had been clearly studied under the medical level at that time.

It's just that the innovation of medical technology has allowed many medicines or items to undergo new reviews.

This means that many things may need to be eliminated, and many things need to be changed.

Drug use guidelines need to be changed, drug user manuals need to be reviewed and inspected again, medical equipment needs to face new changes, etc...

Every advancement in technology actually requires changes for the entire world.

As a world-class big group, would Fei Nuo not understand this thing?

Of course not, as the orthopedic medical device production and R&D base of Hankison Company, one of the main businesses of Fenuo Group, they have been engaged in such research all the time.

The cobalt-chromium alloy came from the research and development of this company. It took them more than ten years, tens of billions of dollars in research funds, and a lot of manpower and material resources to obtain this cobalt-chromium alloy, which was called the proud son of heaven at that time.

He detonated the whole world just after he appeared and went public, he is destined to be the darling of the times.

That's right, he did it, pulling Fei Nuo Group from the top [-] in the world to the top [-] abruptly.

The core of the US FDA's approval process for medical devices is to replace them. If a new medical device has the efficacy of a previously marketed medical device, it can be marketed.

The FDA in the United States has always been at an ambiguous stage in the approval of medical devices. On the contrary, the research on drugs is very strict.

This also caused the Fei Nuo Group to seize this loophole. Although the side effects and complications of cobalt-chromium alloy are also being studied, the research results have not been published.

Moreover, cobalt-chromium alloy can induce a series of mental diseases, which they have never done research on.

If no one comes to expose the problems of cobalt-chromium alloy, according to the requirements of the US FDA, Fei Nuo did not make a mistake, but he can only say that his work attitude is not positive enough.

But if someone does it, there are indeed problems with the cobalt-chromium alloy produced by Fei Nuo, and it needs to be rectified. If all patients publicly demand compensation from Fei Nuo, Fei Nuo will not be able to avoid it!

The law is never perfect, just like technology, it will change with the times.

Some backward things will all be buried by the dust of history, and they cannot be stopped, because what covers you is called the tide of the times.
