This audio conference discusses the background and status of the upcoming legislation on elabeling for medical devices in the European Union. Based on the most recent available EU Commission draft, it covers the scope of medical devices being considered for elabeling, as well as general requirements and envisaged provisions for risk assessment, user information and Notified Body surveillance. Our speaker, who chairs Eucomed's Alternative Labeling Task Force, also reviews a number of topics still under discussion, and provides information about the political process and expected time scenario – as well as factors which could lead to potential delays. The presentation also raises some practical considerations on the implementation of elabeling for medical devices.
