Difference between trade names and generic names of medical devices
Different sources. The difference between trade names and generic names of medical devices lies in their different sources. At present, the generic name and registration certificate name of medical devices are the same according to national regulations (there may be differences due to historical reasons of laws and regulations and different understandings of local governments), and the trade name is equivalent to the trademark applied by enterprises, which is used to distinguish products with the same generic name as other manufacturers and form their own market reputation.
