In this webinar, we will review the conformity requirements for “legacy devices” under the MDR and “established devices” under the IVDR to help you harness the potential of effective post market activities. We will discuss how “legacy devices,” defined as those previously certified under MDD/AIMDD, can demonstrate conformity to the general safety and performance requirements under the MDR through a collection of pre-market and post-market data.
Additionally, we will touch on some examples of the types of clinical data that are appropriate to use for “legacy devices” for both MDR and IVDR requirements, and finally we will review the MDCG 2020-6 guidance on clinical data for “legacy devices.”
There will be time at the end of the presentation to get your questions answered. Please submit your questions beforehand if you have any to help us prepare. You can also submit your questions during the presentation.

Those Regulatory, Quality and Clinical leaders and teams who develop, write, review, or approve clinical evaluation reports for MDR submissions, or anyone interested in learning more about these requirements. Those from the IVD space are welcome to attend as this information may also be relevant.
Joining Criterion Edge’s President Laurie Mitchell, is guest speaker, Queenita Fernandes, Medtronic’s Medical Safety Manager, Patient Monitoring & Respiratory Interventions. In this webinar, we discuss how to deploy systematic literature review in order to augment post market clinical surveillance, and share best tips on a robust systematic literature review process. Following this, our guest speaker shares an informative case study illustrating more.
Key Takeaways:
Safety and performance objectives…..clinical outcomes…..clinical benefits…..acceptance criteria…..risk-benefit ratio. These terms represent key concepts of the Clinical Evaluation Report (CER), yet confusion still exists on how to effectively identify, present and analyze these parameters within the context of an MDR-compliant CER. How do they tie together? How do they help you “tell the story” of the CER?

Presented from the point of view of seasoned MDR-compliant CER medical writers, this session will take a practical approach to:

Those Regulatory, Quality and Clinical leaders and teams who develop, write, review, or approve clinical evaluation reports for MDR submissions. Anyone interested in learning more about MDR requirements for CERs is also welcome to attend. Also, we encourage professionals from the IVD industry to attend as well, as the content is also relevant to IVDR requirements, which align closely with MDR.
This white paper is a companion piece to our popular webinar where we cover strategies to verify device safety and performance in the clinical evaluation of medical and in vitro diagnostic (IVDs) devices. This white paper should help you with identifying meaningful safety and performance measures for clinical or performance evaluation and with defining acceptance criteria parameters to determine the acceptability of benefit-risk as mandated by Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745 and In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR) 2017/746.
Establishing your device’s safety and performance is a critical component of the clinical evaluation process. However, how to use the state of the art section within the Clinical Evaluation Report (CER) and Performance Evaluation Report (PER) to establish the device’s safety and performance objectives and acceptance criteria can seem ambiguous.
In the first part of our webinar series, we discussed Legacy Devices, WET devices, and devices exempt from Clinical Investigations under Article 61, along with the need for data sufficiency and how significant changes impact the route to conformity. In this webinar, our medical regulatory experts, Dr. Sarah Chavez and Stacie Beecham, discuss the concept of data sufficiency and give you strategies for addressing limited clinical and performance data. We also discuss adjusting the Clinical Evaluation Plan to align with the regulatory strategy.
How do you determine which content applies to each classification? How do you address data insufficiency for a WET or Legacy device? We answer these questions and outline how to ensure your regulatory strategy will adequately support the clinical evaluation specific to your device.

Every day, pharma and medical device companies need data from Systematic Literature Reviews (SLRs) to inform, direct, and help drive their internal processes and decisions. Of course, to comply with global regulatory requirements, clinical literature is also required. Conducting SLRs to search, screen, and extract data from published sources can present challenges to your team in terms of expertise (e.g., medical librarian), methodology, and resources. It takes trained people with the availability to screen, review, and analyze the literature.

Our President Laurie Mitchell joins Jennifer Tetzlaff, Research Product Specialist with Evidence Partners, to talk to you about the following points:
What do I do if there is no data for my device? This is a concern we hear quite often from clients. MDR states that device groups may not require clinical investigations if sufficient clinical evidence exists and the device meets specific criteria. In this webinar, we will discuss the concept of clinical data sufficiency. Specifically, we will explain the differences between a well-established technology and a legacy device as defined by MDR, and discuss strategies from both a regulatory and writer’s perspective.

In Part 1 of our IVD Deep Dive series, we discussed the importance of selecting meaningful performance objectives and explained how these objectives help establish the acceptance criteria. Part 2 of our series will pick up from there with strategies to identify sources of clinical data for your IVD.
Presented from the point of view of seasoned MDR-compliant CER medical writers, this session will present strategies for the verification of IVD clinical performance in the PER. This presentation should help you identify meaningful and measurable performance measures and identify sources of clinical data to support the Clinical Performance Report (CPR).
Key Takeaways:
Those Regulatory, Quality and Clinical leaders and teams who develop, write, review, or approve clinical performance reports for IVDR submissions.
In vitro diagnostic (IVD) medical devices in the European Union are being held to a higher standard of scrutiny with the introduction of In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR) 2017/746 by the European Commission (EC).
The implementation of IVDR dramatically changes the regulatory landscape for IVD medical devices. Some of the biggest changes include an expanded definition of IVDs and a new classification of IVDs. Some other changes are the requirement of Unique Device Identification (UDI) on each device, an expansion of the Quality Management System, and the increased need for Notified Body (NB) review.
The transition into IVDR is already underway. Consequently, IVDs marketed in the EU will continue to require a CE Marking certificate. This is necessary to verify that the device meets all the regulatory requirements. Indeed, failure to meet the IVDR deadlines could be very costly to manufacturers. They would either lose their CE Marking or fail to obtain one.
