The European medical device industry is undergoing a transformation as the new European Medical Device Regulation is set to replace Medical Device Directives (93/42/EEC) and Active Implantable Medical Device Directive (90/385/EEC) by 2020. The European Union Medical Device Regulation (EU MDR), which was published in the Official Journal of the European Union on May 5th, 2017, is aimed at restoring confidence in the European regulatory system after widespread safety issues and corrupt Notified Body engagements. These regulations are directed to increase post-market surveillance, expand the use of Unique Device Identifiers and provide better oversight of Notified Bodies.
Those organizations that are non-compliant will be unable to participate in the EU market until they are certified, which was recently estimated to be a market worth €14.11 billion across EU’s ten largest economies, plus Switzerland. Join this session to learn key strategies on how to achieve EU MDR compliance, in a staged approach, become an EU MDR pioneer and take market share from competitors.
