How to Find Compliance Documents in Tissue and Implant Tracking Software.
Compliance documents in tissue and implant tracking software
Two key documents used in tissue and implant tracking are Tissue Supplier Certifications and Instructions for Use (IFU’s). The FDA, AATB, and state regulations require healthcare organizations to maintain current and ten-year archives of these documents.
Keeping up with current and archival records of tissue suppliers and IFUs is a challenging and time-consuming task for hospital staff, but it is imperative that the documentation complies with regulatory requirements to ensure tissue safety and quality, verify the qualifications of tissue suppliers, establish tissue traceability, and provide guidelines for handling, storing, and using tissues responsibly during medical procedures.

Take advantage of integrated access: IFUs and Tissue Supplier Certifications at your fingertips.
Tissue Supplier Certifications
The FDA requires tissue suppliers to provide supplier certification documents to ensure that tissue products are safe, high-quality, and sourced from reputable sources. A tissue supplier’s certification contains information regarding the origins of tissue products, including the screening process of donors and any testing performed on the tissue before distribution. Additionally, the document may describe the specific methods used to process and package the tissue, as well as storage and transportation requirements. Hospital personnel rely on Tissue Supplier Certifications whenever items are procured, received, stored, or used for medical procedures.
Instructions for Use (IFUs)
Whenever tissue or implant products are used in medical procedures, hospital staff must follow the manufacturer’s Instructions for Use (IFUs) to comply with regulatory requirements. These documents contain detailed information about a tissue or implant product, including its intended use, handling and storage instructions, and any special precautions required during use. Hospital staff follow IFU’s as part of their daily workflows to ensure that tissue and implant products are used correctly and safely, ultimately resulting in better patient outcomes.
Saving time with compliance documents in tissue and implant tracking software
Considering the frequent use of IFUs and Tissue Supplier Certifications in hospitals, it is imperative that these compliance documents are readily available to personnel for the purpose of maintaining a smooth, efficient, and safe workflow.

Compliance documents available with manual upload
Although having access to compliance documents in a tissue tracking system is essential, some software vendors take a siloed approach when integrating Tissue Supplier Certifications and IFU’s. This method requires hospital personnel to log out of their existing tissue tracking software and sign into a separate site to download compliance-required documents. Upon saving the documents, they must return to their tissue tracking software and upload each document.
This time-consuming process must be repeated frequently to maintain compliance and ensure the accuracy of all tissue supplier certifications and IFU documentation. Adding unnecessary burdens to workflows that are already challenging is inefficient.
