Project Description:
Greetings,
I need some help with market research. I am looking at the medical device industry, specifically the reprocessing of single use devices. I have a list of 8 US companies that I would like information on about the devices they reprocess. The information I need is listed below, with sources.
Device Trade Name
Device Manufacturer
Average US Sales Price (New)
Annual US Device Volume (New)
FDA 510k records is a good place to start. The companies are listed below, along with the number of devices they each reprocess.
Stryker Sustainability Solutions (116)
Sterilmed (60)
Medisiss (57)
Hygia Health Services (22)
Suretek Medical (18)
Centurion Medical Products Corporation (13)
Midwest Reprocessing Center (9)
Renu Medical (8)
Companies and device numbers were found at http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/ReprocessingofSingle-UseDevices/ucm121093.htm#1,
Many of the focus companies reprocess the same devices; even though the information will be the same the list should include every device for each company (i.e. if two Medisiss and Sterilmed both reprocess St. Jude C7 Dragonfly catheters the information should be listed for both companies).
I am looking for a spreadsheet with all of this information. An example row would be
Stryker Sustainability Services, Impact LF4200, Covidien, $750, 150000
(Reprocessor Name, Device Name, Device OEM, Sales Price, Device Volume)
There will be another project in the future, identifying the volumes and prices that each reprocessor has for each approved device.
