Core Tip This study provides a comprehensive examination of regulatory inadequacies within India’s medical device sector, focusing exclusively on the Johnson & Johnson hip implant case. It identifies critical deficiencies in the existing legislative framework, insufficient postmarket surveillance, and a lack of effective accountability mechanisms, all of which pose substantial risks to patient safety. The findings underscore the urgent need for systematic reforms, including the implementation of mandatory clinical investigations, the establishment of centralized patient registries, and enhanced collaboration with international regulatory authorities. Addressing these regulatory gaps is imperative for safeguarding public health and restoring confidence in the medical device industry.
