MEDDEV 2.7/3: Best Practices for Clinical Evaluation Reports

is being presented by Helen Colquhoun, CEO, of Pleiad Inc. and airs on Wednesday, May 4th, 2011. For more details, or to register please visit our site at www.fxconferences.com

Evaluation of clinical data is a necessary part of the European technical file or design dossier for CE marking of medical devices. The purpose of the evaluation is to demonstrate conformity with the essential requirements concerning performance and safety of the device under normal conditions of use. The data may come from published literature, clinical trials, or a combination of the two.

This audio conference will focus on the literature route for providing clinical data, which, if done well, may preclude the need for a de novo clinical trial. The presentation will highlight best practices, describe the Medical Device Directive (MDD) requirements concerning clinical evaluation, and describe the most recent changes in the regulatory guidance, MEDDEV 2.7/3, which was issued in December 2010.
