Now that the European Medical Devices Regulation (MDR) has come into full effect, medical device manufacturers should verify that their post-market surveillance (PMS) processes are fully compliant under the Regulation.
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 prioritize. 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
