Lasers and LEDs in Medical Products

Lasers and LEDs are increasingly integrated into a wide range of medical products, including various diagnostic and imaging systems, skin treatment applications, ophthalmic assessment and surgical procedures, and other applications such as those used for removal of kidney stones via surgical laser.

Many of the lasers used in medical devices are Class 4 lasers, so ensuring your medical device contract manufacturer has the appropriate handling and safety measures in place is paramount.

Class 4 Lasers

There are four major laser hazard categories in the United States, ranging from Class 1 Lasers (Class I) to Class 4 lasers (Class IV). Class 4 lasers are the most powerful class of lasers, thus appropriate handling, safety and compliance are critical. Cogmedix operates a registered Class 4 laser facility, compliant with the requirements of American National Standards Institute Z136 Guidelines and 105 CMR 121.000.

Laser Safety — Medical Device Manufacturing

At Cogmedix, all subassemblies and finished devices that contain a laser are powered up and tested only in our designated and secure laser test room, which has the appropriate signage and eyewear requirements posted clearly. The Cogmedix laser safety program is overseen by our Laser Safety Officer, who has received training from an independent third party laser organization.

Cogmedix is a medical device manufacturer of Class I, Class II, and Class III medical devices, some of which integrate laser and LED technologies. As a subsidiary of Coghlin Companies, Cogmedix provides medical contract manufacturing services for companies seeking a compliant, conscientious, cost effective, domestic medical device contract manufacturer to assist them in manufacturing medical lasers.
