Abstract: 114
Abstract
Proper storage and distribution of medical devices are essential to ensure product quality, safety, and availability. This study aims to evaluate the implementation of medical device storage and distribution systems at PT “X” by the Guidelines for Good Medical Device Distribution Practices (CDAKB). The research employed a descriptive and evaluative observational approach to assess storage facilities and distribution procedures. The results showed that most CDAKB requirements were met, including maintaining warehouse cleanliness, ensuring adequate ventilation, providing rack and pallet availability, and conducting routine temperature monitoring. The distribution followed standard procedures, such as transportation inspection and product labeling. However, shortcomings were identified in the communication of information to clients regarding storage conditions and the protection of product quality. Therefore, improvements in communication along the distribution chain are necessary to ensure that medical devices remain safe and effective when reaching the end user.
