nomenclature classification of medical devices approved by the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation;

c) analysis of the technical documentation of the manufacturer on the medical product;
d) compiling technical testing programs (when conducting tests);
e) test of samples (sample) of the medical product (when

(e) Evaluation and analysis of data related to the medical product, to check its quality and safety;

g) finalization of the technical and operational documentation of the manufacturer to the medical device according to the

completeness and adequacy requirements that ensure the quality and 
safety of the medical product;
compliance with the requirements set forth in the manufacturer's technical documentation for a 
medical product, the requirements of applicable national (international) standards;

controlled during technical testing, as well as test methods;
d) the possibility of using the manufacturer's operational documentation when applying a medical product for its intended 
purpose;

e) the quality of the medical product and the safety of its use.

The cost of technical testing depends on:
a) the risk of the use of the medical product;

b) the appointment of a medical product;

c) the number of execution of samples declared in the manufacturer's technical documentation (manufacturer);
