Medical Device Technical File

MDR 2017 / 745 Annex II Medical device technical file is a summary document prepared by the manufacturer in a clear, well-organized, readily searchable, and unambiguous manner to demonstrate the safety and performance of the device in question.

 

The Medical device technical file must be submitted to notified body or Competent Authority for review and approval. It should be preferably made in the English language or in an official language of an EU Member state. It must be available on request for the whole life cycle of the medical device (5 years for low-risk and 16 years for high-risk devices). Non-EU manufacturers must keep the file with the European Authorized Representative.

 

Irrespective of a medical device class, intended use, construction, and or safe history of the device, the manufacturer must have and keep up-to-date technical file documentation to demonstrate compliance with general safety and performance requirements Annex I of MDR 2017/745.

Criteria for the selection of Technical File

Quality Assurance and Regulatory consulting team members are always confused or find it difficult in identifying the required number of technical file for the products planned for European CE Marking.

 

It is advised to remember that medical device technical file is all about your device to establish safety and performance. It means you cannot combine products with the different intended use, or different class, or different construction material, or even different design.

  • Device Intended use and Indication of use
  • Site of application
  • Design change or major constructional changes
  • State of the art
