Post Market Surveillance and Post Market Clinical Follow Up Plan

A roadmap for Post market surveillance and Post market clinical follow-up plan updates In the medical device industry maintaining high standards of product safety, efficiency and compliance is not only a legal obligation but a commitment to patient safety and innovation. European Union Medical Device Regulation (EU MDR 2017/745) and ISO13485 emphasizes the importance of post-market surveillance (PMS), Post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF) and corrective and preventive action (CAPA) in ensuring safety and effectiveness of the device once they are marketed. CAPA is a cornerstone in achieving this goal by addressing identified issues and mitigating potential risks. When integrated into PMS and PMCF systems, CAPA [...]

Clinical Evaluation and Labelling: How They Are Interlinked

How Clinical Evaluation and Labelling Work Together Clinical evaluation and labelling form two integral components of the regulatory framework under the European Union Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745. Though quite distinct, these two processes are intricately related and perform complementary functions for compliance with the requirements imposed by the GSPRs contained in Annex I of the MDR. Multiple guidance documents issued by the Medical Device Coordination Group (MDCG) provide detailed insights into this interdependence: MDCG 2020–13 emphasizes the importance of taking all necessary steps to ensure that medical devices are safe, effective, and compliant with regulatory requirements. MDCG 2021–24 explains how [...]

Demonstrating Equivalence Aspects

Understanding The Technical, Biological, And Clinical Aspects Of Demonstrating Equivalence The MDR (Annex XIV, Part A) emphasizes the importance of considering technical, biological, and clinical characteristics when demonstrating equivalence to other devices. The demonstration of equivalence must adhere to the requirements outlined in Part A, section 3 of Annex XIV of EU-MDR. Annex XIV part A requires that the manufacturer should demonstrate that there are no clinically significant differences in safety or clinical performance with regard to technical, biological and clinical characteristics. MEDDEV 2.7/1 Rev. 4 is a guidance document that provides guidance on clinical evaluation in the European Union. However, because [...]

Successful Clinical Evaluation Report under MDR 2017/745

Key Components of a Successful Clinical Evaluation Report under MDR 2017/745 A Clinical Evaluation Report (CER) becomes an essential document in terms of safety and performance of the device to prove that a device is safe and performs as intended. These are the key components of a successful CER within the framework of MDR 2017/745. Scope and Objectives The first and foremost stage in the preparation of the Clinical evaluation report includes and emphasizes the clear definition of its respective scope and objectives. Aspects of this include defining the description of the device, of its intended purpose. This must include risk classification [...]

Clinical Evaluation of Reusable, Measuring & Sterile Class I Medical Devices

Clinical Evaluation of Reusable, Measuring & Sterile Class I Medical Devices Class I medical devices under the EU MDR are considered low-risk devices. These medical devices are usually non-invasive and for transient use, such as hospital beds or bandages, or invasive tools used only transiently in body orifices, such as dental impression materials. Class I medical devices can be active, such as examination lamps. However, the MDCG 2021–24 Guidance on the classification of medical devices specifies three subclasses of Class I devices based on device-specific features, that do require assessment by a Notified Body. Class I medical devices are subdivided: Class Ir [...]
