2. Yes, check the product qualification: the medical device product shall have the medical device product registration certificate (or filing certificate), and the medical device production license can be logged on the national website. Whether the FDA should distinguish the true from the false. Query click medical devices in the data query column and enter the registration number or product name to query products from all over the country.
