Supervision and Control of Clinical Equipment
Professional clinics may face regulatory oversight regarding the use of energy-based equipment, so it is important to have documentation, classification, and safety procedures in place.
Supervision is typically about documentation and correct use – not about marketing.
What can be asked during an inspection?
During the check-up, the clinic may be asked to present:
• CE documentation
• EU Declaration of Conformity
• Instructions for use
• Risk assessment
• Documented safety procedures

Class 4 and safety
If the clinic uses a class 4 laser, there may be a focus on:
• Safety glasses
• Access control
• Signage
• Training of personnel
• Documented risk assessment

Import and responsibility
If the equipment is imported directly from a third country, the clinic may have greater regulatory responsibility.
