Do you have questions about how to generate, collect, analyze, and assess clinical data pertaining to your IVD or medical device? And what are the best practices for conducting literature searches? How do you effectively present your data in your clinical evaluation report or performance evaluation report?
During this 45-minute Q&A session, our President Laurie Mitchell is joined by Dr. Sarah Chavez to answer some commonly asked questions and give expert advice. Answers cover how to best collect and present data on similar (competitor) devices as well as data collection strategies for new products. In addition, there is discussion around best practices for and examples of appraising literature and clinical data. Also, clarification between safety & performance metrics and risks & benefits analyses is given, plus so much more.
Those Regulatory, Quality and Clinical leaders and teams who develop, write, review or approve clinical evaluation reports or performance evaluation reports for EU MDR or IVDR submissions.
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:
This white paper is a companion piece to our popular webinar where we break down the steps of the systematic literature review (SLR) process and take a wholistic approach to conducting an In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR)-compliant SLR.
Leveraging published data can help meet global regulatory expectations, fill knowledge gaps, and inform internal decision-making. This applies to IVDR and Medical Device Regulation 2017/745 (MDR) requirements, but for the sake of providing an example, we focus on IVDR here. A methodologically-sound SLR can leverage published data for critical IVDR-required reports (e.g., the Scientific Validity Report, clinical performance). Remember, an SLR is far more than an internet search. It is a clear and robust plan for the identification, retrieval, selection, appraisal, and weighting of published data. SLR has long been the “gold standard” process for evidence-based research, especially in the academic and professional arenas. In today’s regulatory landscape where rigorous methodological SLR principles are now being mandated, adopting a transparent and reproducible process for literature reviews is essential. Every methodologically-sound SLR has 5 clearly defined steps…

Do you have specific questions about the steps of the systematic literature review process or questions regarding your medical device or IVD? During this 45-minute Q&A session, our President Laurie Mitchell answers questions about the steps to conduct a methodologically sound SLR. In addition, she discusses how to leverage published data to meet regulatory expectations and inform internal decision-making from marketing initiatives and clinical strategies to global regulatory requirements.
Those Regulatory, Quality and Clinical leaders and teams who develop, write, review or approve Systematic Literature Reviews for EU MDR or IVDR submissions, meta-analyses, regulatory response support, development of clinical marketing materials, etc.
With the implementation of IVDR and MDR requirements, device manufacturers often struggle to align their internal processes and systems to comply with these rigorous regulations. Consequently, companies realize the need to review published literature for device-specific clinical data. However many manufacturers may not be familiar with or have the capability to perform all steps of the rigorous systematic literature review process, including screening, selection and data extraction.
Watch our webinar where we break down the steps of the SLR process and take a wholistic approach to conducting an IVDR-compliant SLR. Using case studies, the presentation illustrates the effective use of SLR-derived data to develop the Scientific Validity Report (SVR) and the Clinical Performance Report (CPR). We encourage professionals from the medical device industry to watch as well, as the content is also relevant to MDR requirements, which align closely with IVDR.
