Extended MDR Date of Application: Optimizing your PMS and clinical activities
Now that the European Medical Devices Regulation (MDR) final date of application has been pushed to May 2021, medical device manufacturers should take full advantage of their extra time to ensure their post-market surveillance (PMS) processes will be fully compliant when the Regulation takes effect.
More extensive PMS, post-market clinical follow-up (PMCF) and related clinical requirements of MDR pose considerable challenges for medical device companies. In this one-hour webinar, we will focus on key compliance issues manufacturers should focus on in order to fully utilize the additional time granted before the MDR date of application. We’ll discuss:
- A refresher on MDR PMS and PMCF requirements
- What constitutes “sufficient” clinical evidence for MDR compliance
- Considerations when performing clinical data gap analyses
- Practical considerations and examples of PMS and PMCF activities
- Why and how well-planned post-market surveillance activities could save firms money
