Within the last few years, all around the world, technology has advanced and innovated tremendously, especially in the fabrication and utilization of medical equipment. Medical devices range almost everything in the healthcare practice from high\u2013tech life-sustaining machines to simple imaging equipment. However, as the trend of using medical devices becomes widespread, the use of these devices increases the problem of medical waste and its effects on the environment. The concept of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) is particularly relevant for plastic and battery-powered devices, particularly because of the environmental pollution caused by medical devices.<\/p>\n
