Automated Proofreading for Medical Device Documentation
Medical Device documentation is often highly complex. Error-free manual proofreading is virtually impossible. TVT helps ensure your content, including text, symbols, spelling, artwork and barcodes, are correct and comply with medical device labeling and health authority standards.
Why Choose TVT for Your Medical Device Documentation?
You can’t afford to publish or post documents with errors in any business sector, especially with the stringent medical device labeling standards. Using TVT comparison software to proofread various document versions eliminates those risks and helps you maintain compliance. Anytime content changes from the original format, there is a risk of error. An incorrect symbol can be easy to miss with the naked eye, but for the end user the difference is significant.
The Proofreading Tool for Medical Device Professionals
Regardless of your role or title, if you are responsible for content accuracy, using comparison software to proofread different versions of your documents removes the risk of error while reducing your manual workload. TVT, the comparison software for medical devices, verifies text, spelling, artwork and barcodes in seconds, catching even the smallest deviation early in the process.
Accuracy is crucial. Incorrect or misleading labeling can compromise patient safety and lead to costly recalls. TVT helps you comply with medical device labeling and document requirements, including language, symbols, and UDIs that meet FDA and EU MDR labeling requirements.
TVT simplifies the complex review and approval processes by automating proofreading across different file formats, multilingual documents, tables, and graphics, ensuring 100% accuracy. This eliminates the reliance on costly manual proofreading and reduces the risk of an expensive recall or reprint.
TVT is user-friendly, streamlining the proofreading process for maximum efficiency while reducing errors and improving turnaround times. This automated proofreading software for medical device documentation can handle various file formats, enabling side-by-side comparisons of PDF, Word, Excel, and XML file formats, as well as HTML web pages to facilitate the review of any electronic content.
TVT facilitates compliance with 21 CFR Part 820 by ensuring accurate and consistent labeling. It simplifies updating medical device labels and eIFU, IFU, and DFU manuals to meet the requirements of the EU MDR, reducing the risk of non-compliance. Additionally, TVT supports SPL submission formats, making it easier to manage regulatory submissions efficiently.
