New European Medical Device Regulation(MDR) 2017-745

This webinar will discuss the main differences between the current EU Medical Device Directive (MDD) 93/42/EEC and the new EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017-745, and how to ensure compliance with the new MDR requirements that will be mandatory starting May-2020.

The webinar will discuss in detail how to address the gaps between MDR and MDD in the areas of:

• Device classification
• Conformity routes
• General Safety and Performance Requirements (GSPRs)
• Technical documentation
• Post-market surveillance (PMS)
• Clinical evaluation
• UDI
• EUDAMED
• Economic operators

Only medical device companies that comply with the new Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017-745 will stay in the European market after 26-May-2020. It’s key to understand the gaps with the previous Medical Device Directive (MDD) 93/42/EEC, and how to remediate them to continue business in the 2nd (about 30 % worldwide volume) worldwide medical device market.
