4 Characteristics of injectable implants
4.1 General
General requirements for non-active surgical implants are given in EN ISO 14630.
Requirements for the biocompatibility of injectable implants are given in the EN ISO 10993 series of standards.
Requirements for the risk management of injectable implants are given in EN ISO 14971.
All injectable implants shall be used in accordance with the instructions for use.
Once the implant is in place it is usually difficult to retrieve the implant completely.
