FOREWORD
OBJECTIVE
This paper is aimed at establishing a comparative study between an ISO rule andtwo sanitary legislations for Good Manufacturing Practices and Control, as well as Storage
and Distribution of Products for Health and establishing a basis for adoption at the ISO rule.
NBR ISO 13485:2004 Health Products Quality management systems
Requirements for regulating purposes;
Resolution RDC 59:2000 Determines to all medical product suppliers, compliance
with the requirements set forth by the Good Medical Product Manufacturing
Practices.
Ordinance 686:1998 Determines to all establishments which manufacture products
for in vitro use diagnosis, compliance with the guidelines set forth by the Good
Manufacturing Practices and Control in In Vitro Use Diagnostic Products
Establishments.
RDC 167:2004 Determines an Inspection Guide for verification of compliance with
Good Manufacturing Practices for Establishments which Manufacture or Trade
Products for In Vitro Use Diagnosis, to be abided by the Sanitary Surveillance
agencies in the whole national territory.
METHODOLOGY USED IN THE COMPARISON
The comparison used the quality management principles as tool for accomplishing
the comparison between the rule and the Good Manufacture Practices legislations. A
quality management principle is a belief or fundamental and extensive rule to conduct and
operate an organization, aimed at continuously improving its performance in the long term,
by focusing on customers and, at the same time, sending the needs from all stakeholders.
Upon growth of the globalization, quality management became fundamental for
leadership and continuous improvement of all organizations. By applying the eight quality
management principles, the organizations will produce benefits to customers, shareholders,
suppliers, local communities, i.e., for the society in general.
In accordance with ABNT/CB-25, the eight quality management principles are as
follows:
Focus on Customer; Leadership;

The following Technical Rules and Legislations were used in this comparative study:
NBR ISO 13485:2004 Health Products Quality management systems
Requirements for regulating purposes;
ANSI/AAMI/ISO TIR14969:2004 Medical devices Quality management systems
Guidance on the application of ISO 13485:2003;
NBR ISO 9000:2005 Quality Management Systems Fundamentals and vocabulary;
NBR ISO 9001:2000 Quality Management Systems Requirements;
NBR ISSO 19011:2002 Guidelines for quality and/or environmental management
system audits.
The comparison is followed by commentaries related to the requirements that are being
analyzed and ends with the verification items to be used in first, second and/or third parties
audits.
NOTES RELATED TO THE COMPARATIVE STUDY
The rule ISO 13485 complies, at least, with 80% of the sanitary requirements in effect in the
Mercosul for health products and adds important requirements which are not comprised as
focus on customer, risk management, planning, development and project control and entries
and exits of critical analysis.
Sanitary requirements such as rejected materials; sample returns and retentions are implicit
in the non-compliant product control, data analysis and continuous improvements items of
ISO 13485, aimed at safety of the patients health. Thus, even more significant
convergences are verified between the rules MERCOSUL and those international.
The comparative study also shows an inspection guide, applicable to any Quality
Management System, as a proposal to cover all sanitary requirements applicable in health
products.

0.2Process Approach
This Rule is based upon a process approach for thequality management.
Any activity receiving entries and converting them into
exits may be considered as a process.
So that an organization can function efficiently, it has toidentify and manage several related processes.
Usually the exit of a process is the entry for the followingprocess.
Application of a process system in an organization,together with the identification, interaction of theseprocesses and their management, may be consideredas process approach.

0.4 Compatibility to other Management
Systems
This Rule follows the format of ABNT NBR ISO 9001 forthe convenience of the users of the health product
community.
This Rule does not include specific requirements fromother management systems, such as thoseenvironmental management specific, occupationalhealth, safety or financial management.
However, this Rule makes it possible for an organizationto align or integrate its quality management system toother related management system requirements. It ispossible for an organization to adapt its existingmanagement systems to establish a qualitymanagement system which complies with therequirements of this Rule.

1 Objective
1.1 FundamentalsThis Rule specifies requirements for a qualitymanagement system where an organizationneeds to show its abilities to supply healthproducts and related services which consistentlymeet the customer and regulating requirementsapplicable for health products and relatedservices.
The main purpose of this Rule is making it easyfor the agreement of the health productregulating requirements for the qualitymanagement systems. As a result, it includessome specific requirements for health products
and excludes some of the requirements ofABNT NBR ISO 9001 that are not appropriateas regulating requirements. Due to suchexclusions, the organizations which qualitymanagement system is in compliance with thisRule cannot claim compliance with ABNT NBRISO 9001, unless their quality managementsystems are in compliance with all therequirements of ABNT NBR ISO 9001 (seeattachment B).

3 Terms and Definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms anddefinitions of ABNT NBR ISO 9000 are applied, togetherwith those that follow.
The following terms, used in this edition of ABNT NBRISO 13485 to describe the supply chain, were changedin order to reflect the currently used vocabulary:
Supplier --------Organization -------- Customer
The term organization replaces the term supplierused in ABNT NBR ISO 13485:2000, and refers to theunit to which this Rule applies. Equally, the termsupplier now replaces the term subcontractor.
Throughout the text of this Rule, where the termproduct appears, it may also mean service.
Whenever requirements are specified as applicable forhealth products, they apply equally to related servicesas provided by the organization.

7 Product Manufacturing
7.1 Product Manufacturing Planning
The organization must plan and develop the requiredprocesses to manufacture the product. Planning of theproduct manufacturing must be coherent with therequirements of other quality management systemprocesses (see 4.1).
When planning product manufacturing, the organizationmust determine the following, as appropriate:
a) quality objectives and requirements for the product;
b) need to establish processes and documents andprovide specific resources for the product;
c) verification, validation, monitoring, inspection andtesting activities required, specific for the product, aswell as the criteria for product acceptance;
d) records needed to provide evidence that themanufacturing processes and the resulting product meetthe requirements (see 4.2.4).
Exit of this planning must be adequate to theorganizations method of operation.
The organization must establish documentedrequirements for risk management during the productmanufacturing. Records resulting from the riskmanagement must be kept (see 4.2.4).
NOTE 1 A document specifying the quality
management system processes (including productmanufacturing processes) and the resources to beapplied to a product, undertaking or specific contract,may be referenced as a quality plan.
NOTE 2 The organization may also apply therequirements presented in 7.3 when developing the
