ABSTRACT
Cutting-edge materials have changed medical device and implant manufacturing. The processing of these materials affects their mechanical, physical, and biological properties, impeding integration. This study looks at different ways to process healthcare materials, focusing on the specific needs of these materials, such as biocompatibility, mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, stability, and bioactivity. It divides these methods into “ordinary” and “edge-cutting.” Each technique’s benefits, shortcomings, and current innovations, as well as its effects on the material, are also examined. This study also examines how process parameters affect product quality. To incorporate comprehensive review methods, the selected literature for the current study is evaluated according to the study’s goals. The assessment emphasizes quality assurance and regulatory compliance throughout healthcare product production. It stresses the need for quality assurance, characterization, and testing for medical devices and implants. Processes such as polishing, etching, and coatings improve biocompatibility and reduce infection risk, according to the findings. It is also concluded that cutting-edge processing methods such as additive manufacturing and electrospinning provide exact control over material composition, structure, and porosity, making them ideal for many clinical applications.
