What it covers

The EU is preparing proposals to develop the MDR and IVDR further. The announced changes go beyond formalities and concern, among other things, the delineation between medical devices and in-vitro diagnostics and the treatment of integrated products.

Three focus areas in the briefing

  • The new delineation mechanism between medical devices and IVDs
  • Integrated products and the question of the "principal action"
  • Accessories for Annex XVI products under the MDR

Access

Our regulatory experts track the proposals continuously and translate their practical consequences. The briefings are gathered in a dedicated hub and accessible after free registration.
