Clinical Evaluation of Medical Devices in the EU

is being presented by Anthony L. Fitzhugh, M.D., Project Manager/Lead Auditor, with TUV SUD America Inc and airs on Thursday, December 8th, 2011. For more details or to register, please visit our site at www.fxconferences.com

Annex X of the Medical Device Directive (EC Directive 93/42/EEC) requires that a manufacturer who seeks to place a medical device on the market in the EU first conduct and document in the technical file/design dossier a clinical evaluation that fully evaluates the safety and efficacy of the device. An amendment (2007/47/EEC) to the Medical Device Directive—published in 2007— has made this requirement even more stringent than in the recent past. The clinical evaluation must now be documented in such a manner that this section of the file comprises a standalone document. Moreover, all manufacturers must actively maintain their compliance with the aforementioned clinical requirements as well as post-market clinical follow-up—unless it can be shown to be not necessary.

As a result of these changes, those working in regulatory affairs must ensure that they have the proper expertise and strategy in place to allow their company to comply with these requirements prior to and after placement of their medical device on the EU market. This audio conference presentation covers the EU regulatory framework for meeting the revised clinical requirements, as well as strategies for maintaining the clinical data section of the technical file or design dossier.

Technical Documentation Requirements for Device Approval in the EU

is being presented by Tamas Borsai, Division Manager, MHS - Customer Service and Quality, with TUV SUD America Inc. and airs on Thursday, November 10th, 2011. For more details or to register, please visit our site at www.fxconferences.com

Having a technical file for each medical product is one of the common and very basic requirements in all of the European medical device directives. Creating and maintaining these documents requires the proper expertise and strategy from those working in regulatory affairs for the device manufacturer.

The updated Medical Devices Directive – which became effective in 2009 - requests that Notified Bodies set up sampling programs of the technical files for all of their clients, and so the chance of a detailed review of a file by an auditor is higher than at any time previous.

This audio conference covers the regulatory framework with references to the European directives and guidance documents, possible strategies for setting up the technical file, and includes an illustrative case study.
