The In Vitro Diagnostics Regulation (IVDR) took effect in May 2022 and has introduced substantial changes in the regulatory framework for in vitro diagnostic medical devices (IVDs) in Europe. IVD manufacturers are expected to meet more rigorous standards for clinical evidence, with up to 80% of IVDs requiring Notified Body certificates under IVDR. Dr. Sarah […]
While the concept of a “performance evaluation” hasn’t changed much over the past two decades, IVDR requirements regarding the amount and extent of technical documentation have significantly changed compared to the IVDD. Annex XIII of the IVDR specifies the contents of two new documents: the performance evaluation plan (PEP) and the performance evaluation report (PER). […]
With the implementation of IVDR requirements, IVD manufacturers have been challenged to align their internal processes and systems to comply with these rigorous regulations. In this practical presentation, Criterion Edge uncovers what we have learned from our experience in writing MDR-compliant CERs, and how urgently applicable some of these key learnings are in preparing a […]
In this practical presentation, Dr. Sarah Chavez, will present a detailed outline of the IVDR State of the Art search within the Performance Evaluation Report (PER). Additionally, she will distinguish between the purpose and scope of the state-of-the-art and the Competitor search. For example, the SLR approach, data screening, and data presentation will be addressed. […]
Clinical Data for IVD: What is it and How Do I Find It? Do you have questions about how to generate, collect, analyze, or assess clinical data pertaining to your IVD? What are the best practices for conducting literature searches? How do you effectively present your data in your performance evaluation report? Whether you are […]
How to Establish the State-of-the-Art Within the Scientific Validity Report In this presentation, Criterion Edge’s Principal Medical Writer, Dr. Sarah Chavez, will present focused strategies on building an IVDR-aligned State-of-the-Art (SOA) section within the Scientific Validity Report (SVR). She will also talk about the critical role of the SVR as it relates to the overall performance evaluation […]
