Abstract
On 26 May 2017, the Medical Devices Regulation (MDR 2017/745) was published, with the aim of replacing the current Medical Devices Directive (MDD 93/43/EC). Following a transition period of 3 years, this regulation will be applied in full from 26 May 2020. This article describes and discusses the impact of MDR on the clinical evaluation and gives advice to manufacturers on the preparation, planning and implementation of processes to support compliance with the new regulation.
