The European Economic Area is an attractive sales market and distribution target for medical devices and IVDs. The MDR and IVDR provide a standardized set of regulations that reflect the special requirements for medical devices and IVDs. However, the conformity of products with the requirements of MDR and IVDR is only the obvious starting point. Medical devices and IVDs very often also need to satisfy further regulatory requirements.Legislation as part of the European Green Deal has significantly tightened existing requirements or implemented new regulations, including the REACH Regulation (PFAS requirements), the RoHS Directive, the Ecodesign Directive, the Green Claims Regulation, the Battery Regulation, and packaging regulations, to name but a few. Digital products or those with AI components must also meet cybersecurity requirements and the requirements of the AI Act.
This webinar is a joint event organized by MT Promedt Consulting and reuschlaw. MT Promedt Consulting provides an update on the services of an EC REP and the lessons learned from the perspective of the EC REP in dealing with the requirements of the MDR and IVDR since their entry into force. reuschlaw addresses further regulatory requirements for medical devices and IVDs which are not governed by the MDR and IVDR and not covered by an EAR but obligatory for their marketability in the European Economic Area.
