The revisions to the European Medical Devices Directive (MDD) take effect March 2010. If your company manufactures medical devices for the European market, you should already have an implementation plan developed in order to achieve compliance in time. This is especially important because there will be no "grandfathering" for existing CE marked devices; companies that currently have a CE marking or are trying to earn a CE marking for new products are impacted by these revisions.
During this Webcast series, you will receive a thorough clarification of the revised European legislation, including details of the changes. Regulatory experts will provide insight and answer your questions on topics such as risk management, classification rules (including a discussion on software), clinical data requirements and postmarket review systems. You will gain practical tips on their implementation, up-to-date information on relevant guidance and standards, as well as learn what questions to ask your Notified Body.
This five-part series allows for extensive coverage, by multiple experts, of the changes to the MDD. Practical advice and examples from several points of view will provide a wide range of perspectives that can be applied to many highly individualized situations. Take advantage of this valuable opportunity to interact with experts and ask the questions that have troubled you and your organization as you have prepared for the revisions. You will walk away with the necessary information to plan for compliant implementation, allowing you to stay globally competitive, and have regulatory certainty as implementation commences.
