EU 2017/745 - MDR Consultants

Our CE Marking Consultants help the medical device manufacturers in commercializing their products in the EU market. As it is the transition time from MDD to MDR, we can help you identify what is missing from your technical file and what needs to be added.

 

By now, you might have come to know what changes have been implemented in the MDR compared to the MDD, and if not, don’t worry! The CE marking consultants can guide you in the right direction to place your medical device in the EU market.

 

Here are a few points you should take care of while transitioning to MDR and where we – the MDR CE consultants can be of your support:

  • Compliance to General Safety and Performance Requirements
  • Implementation of Unique Device Identifier (UDI) to keep a track of your devices
  • Strong and in-depth clinical data to prove safety and performance claims
  • Stricter equivalency measures
  • New classification rules and addition of re-usable surgical devices requiring NB oversight
  • Reporting of incidents in the EU portal – EUDAMED

EU 2017/746 - IVDR Consultants

With the introduction of IVDR, it has become clear that bringing IVD devices to the EU market has become a nightmare. We can assist you in determining what is missing from your technical file and what has to be updated, as this is the transition period from IVDD to IVDR.

 

Here are the major modifications to be aware of when submitting your IVD device to the EU market, as well as the areas where we, the IVDR CE marking consultants, can assist you:

  • Risk classes – moved from the list-based approach to a risk-based approach. Four risk categories A, B, C & D.
  • Conformity assessment routes were amended – to reflect new classification rules.
  • Performance Evaluation – required throughout the lifetime of the device, must be performed as per the Performance Evaluation Plan.
  • Requires providing clinical evidence reports on scientific validity, analytical performance, and clinical performance.
  • Post Market activities – Post-market Performance Report (PMPF) is a new requirement, PMS plan, PMS report, and Incident report and trending.
  • For scrutiny and traceability demands, Summary of Safety and Performance for classes C& D and the need for a Unique Device Identifier (UDI).
