Distribution Simulation Testing
Definition
Distribution Simulation Testing is a process used to evaluate the ability of medical device packaging to withstand the physical stresses of transportation and storage. This testing mimics real-world distribution conditions, including vibration, shock, compression, and environmental variations, to ensure that the device and its packaging remain intact and functional throughout the supply chain.
Relevance to the MedTech Industry
Distribution Simulation Testing ensures that medical devices reach end-users in their intended condition. It protects device functionality and sterility during distribution while complying with regulatory requirements for packaging and labeling integrity.
