Abstract

Aortic, Coronary and Structural Heart Class III medical devices or implants, support and sustain human lifeare usually permanent implanted devices, have emerged as crucial medical devices in the treatment of a wide range of diseases.Class III medical device and implant failures significantly impact patient outcomes, therapy delivery, and the sustainability of medical devices. Understanding the causes of these failures, including fatigue fractures, anatomical pressures, and wear between implant components, is critical to developing more durable devices and establishing effective testing methods for safe product delivery, performance, and sustainability. This paper explores the maincauses of Class III medical device and implant failure, examining existing problems and limitations. By understanding these issues in detail, It helps mitigate risks in the medical device development process. This paper provides detailed understanding of problems, implants failure for improving reliability and enhancing medical device performance confidence.

Keywords: Aortic, Coronary and Structural Heart Class III medical devices, Implants, Mechanical Failures, Fatigue failures, Implant failure causes, High anatomical pressure, Abrasive wear, Structural failure
