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 robust Performance Evaluation Report (PER).
This presentation provides practical tips on how to assess for hidden traps and unexpected roadblocks that could impact the success of writing an IVDR-compliant PER. By performing a gap analysis and assessing the readiness and availability of critical resources, documents and expertise, you will be able to avoid project delays and discover efficiencies that will enable the on-time completion of a successful, IVDR-compliant PER.

Who is this webinar for?
Those Regulatory, Quality and Clinical leaders and teams who are tasked with the development, writing, review or approval of performance evaluation reports for IVDR submissions.
Healthcare companies continually strive to communicate important information about their drugs and devices to diverse audiences comprised of patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals (HCPs), and the general public. The use of plain language written content ensures key health information and clinical research findings are understandable and accessible to all.
Click here to watch this recent webinar to learn key elements of plain language written content, how to identify the target audience, selecting the most appropriate dissemination channels for the information, the challenges to produce a multitude of plain language written deliverables for multiple audiences, and more.

The European Union (EU) saw 2021 bring important milestones and changes to the implementation of Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745. Key highlights included compliance dates, expert opinion panels, newly published guidance and standards.
The original deadline of 26 May 2021 for MDR 2017/745 compliance has come and gone, and many medical device manufacturers with devices granted a CE mark under MDD are taking advantage of the 26 May 2024 grace period to become fully complaint with MDR. As of September 2021, the EU notified bodies had granted only 502 conformity assessment certificates, thus, it is anticipated there will be an extreme bottleneck in 2023 and especially in 2024 due to limited notified body availability as manufacturers scramble to meet the May 2024 deadline.
Do you have questions about how to identify meaningful safety and performance measures for the clinical evaluation? What are the best strategies for the verification of device safety and performance? Are you demonstrating that your safety and performance objectives are appropriate and clinically relevant? Do you know how to specify acceptance criteria that are used to determine the acceptability of benefit-risk?
This is a 45-minute Q&A session during which President Laurie Mitchell will answer questions like these and more. Submit your questions when you register for this forum. Please be aware that answers will be limited to 3 minutes per questions. This forum will operate on a first come first serve basis.

The newest regulations for medical devices, Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745 and MEDDEV 2.7/1 revision 4, set high standards for confirming safety and performance according to the manufacturer’s Instructions for Use. Previously, regulations under the old MDR and MEDDEV were not as demanding. Also, manufacturers are not accustomed to the current systematic process of CER evaluations.
These relatively new requirements for clinical evaluation extend to manufacturers sending new products into the European market. Additionally, those that are already selling medical devices will have to follow these new requirements. Safety and performance are central components of the evidence-based evaluation process for obtaining and maintaining CE Marking for MDR 2017/745 and MEDDEV 2.7/1 rev 4. Consequently, medical device manufacturers felt the pressure to comply by May 2021.

This webinar is presented from the point of view of seasoned MDR-compliant CER medical writers. Criterion Edge discusses strategies for the verification of device safety and performance in the clinical evaluation. Next, we teach you how to identify meaningful safety and performance measures for the clinical evaluation and define parameters to determine the acceptability of benefit-risk.
Key Takeaways:
Based on the state-of-the-art
Who Should Watch:
Those Regulatory, Quality and Clinical leaders and regulatory writers who develop, write, review or approve Clinical Evaluation Reports for EU MDR submission. Additionally, anyone interested in learning more about MDR requirements for CERs is encouraged to watch as well. Finally, we encourage viewers from the IVD industry as well, as the content is relevant to IVDR requirements, which align closely with MDR.
