approval for medical device usability testing in Japan is\u00a0not always\u00a0required, but is\u00a0determined\u00a0through a\u00a0risk-based approach, considering factors such as patient involvement, clinical settings, invasive prototypes, or physician participation in treatment decisions.\u00a0 Early planning is critical in Japan, as IRB processes typically take 6\u20138 weeks, with fixed monthly review cycles and strict submission timelines.\u00a0\u00a0
