    Abstract: Background: A medical device is any tool, implant, or IVD that is intended to manage, ameliorate, avert, or identify a human disease. Simple thermometers, bandages, implants, and so on are examples. A medical device’s primary intended use is not accomplished chemically on or within the skin, nor does it require metabolization to accomplish that primary intended use. Medical devices are classified differently by different regulatory bodies. The FDA divides medical devices into three categories, whereas India and Europe divide them into four categories based on risk. Each regulated country has its own set of medical device regulations and guidelines. Purpose: The medical device sector is expected to showcase a remarkable journey of growth by 2029, achieving a 718.92-billion-dollar market with a CAGR of 5.5% over the expansion period of 2022–2029, making it the fastest-growing global market. The earlier medical device has simple inspection and testing but Post Covid19 due to an increase in imports, takeover from foreign manufacturers, and fostering innovation medical devices took off, becoming ever more sophisticated and widely available therefore the need for manufacturing and product standards was recognized, the new regulation was framed and regulatory specialists were recruited. Thereby led to the emergence of a whole new regulatory system and a post-marketing surveillance strategy. Methods: The analysis of current market size, share, and trends on medical devices for USA, Europe, and India was performed and current regulatory standards were observed which are continuously becoming stringent for all the countries with the advancement of technology. Conclusions: The Medical devices sector is the leading growing market. With the advancement in the medical device sector such as cybersecurity, digitalization, data privacy, and innovation, new entrants and new manufacturers the doors for entrepreneurship will open thus, it becomes highly important and necessary to introduce comprehensive regulatory guidelines for safety, effectiveness and customer protection, and satisfaction. The regulated medical devices sector will reach new heights with stringent vigilance and transparency benefitting society.

    Abstract: Introduction: During the COVID-19 pandemic, surgical masks have become a crucial protective measure to prevent the spread of the virus. While they are regulated as medical devices to ensure their effectiveness, the high demand for masks has led to an increase in counterfeit products that pose a threat to public health. Materials and methods: In Chandigarh, India, a cross-sectional study was conducted with 350 individuals aged 15 and above who had access to social networks. An online questionnaire consisting of 20 questions on knowledge, practice, and demographics was used to collect data through convenience sampling with a chain-sampling method. Descriptive statistics and correlation and linear regression analysis were performed using SPSS version 29.0 to find a statistically significant relationship between knowledge, practice, and demographic variables. Result: Of 350 participants in the survey 26.0% were aged 15-29, 32.6% were aged 30-39, 13.4% were aged 40-49, and 28.0% were aged 50-80. In terms of gender, 49.1% were male and 50.9% were female. The majority had a master's degree (45.7%) and were employed in the private sector (49.4%). Education had a significant impact on knowledge (t-value of 11.375, significance level 〈 .001), but job type did not (t-value of -1.740, significance level .083). Participants' knowledge and practice had a strong positive correlation (Pearson Correlation coefficient of 1.000, significance level 〈 .001). The constant (intercept) was significant in predicting practice, while age, gender, and job were not (significance levels 〉 .05). Conclusion: The study found that the community had satisfactory awareness and practice of using certified and licensed surgical masks. However, there is a need for reinforced education on the topic. The researchers recommend mass media campaigns and strict government regulation to ensure the use of certified masks and prevent the use of counterfeit ones. Continuous education is also necessary to help the public understand the importance of using certified and licensed masks for maximum protection.
