Série Webinar: clinical masterclass

Rejoignez-nous dans notre nouvelle série de webinars sur le clinical masterclass. Les délais à respecter pour que votre produit conserve son accès au marché européen dans le cadre du nouveau règlement sur les dispositifs médicaux (MDR), plus strict, sont difficiles.

Ces cinq webinars instructifs (en anglais) vous aideront à vous concentrer sur divers aspects du MDR, qu'il s'agisse d'examiner le suivi clinique après la mise sur le marché, de vous aider avec votre logiciel de dispositif médical ou de savoir quand une évaluation clinique est nécessaire. En outre, les participants auront une meilleure compréhension globale des exigences post-commercialisation énoncées aux articles 86 et 87 du MDR.

Veuillez consulter le descriptif des webinars (en anglais) et accédez à l'enregistrement ci-dessous.

Date: 19 January 2022

This webinar will discuss the concept of well-established technologies under the medical device regulations and how to interpret the four criteria defined in MDCG 2020-6. This session will also cover the levels of clinical evidence required for these devices to support your clinical evaluation.

Date: 02 February 2022

This webinar will elaborate on BSI’s understanding of the unusual occasions when it is appropriate to claim that no clinical data is required for clinical evaluation. We will focus on examples of device(s) where clinical data is not required or could be impracticable. This session will also cover what can be considered a ‘claim’ under MDR considering Article 7.

Date: 16 February 2022

The medical device regulations introduce many new requirements on the regulatory aspects of claiming equivalence. This webinar will help manufacturers understand the required regulatory process in order to claim equivalence with a focus on the new requirements in relation to Class III and implantable devices. This session will also discuss the interpretation of MDCG 2020-5.

Date: 02 March 2022

With an increasing number of applications being received for medical device software, this session will look at BSI’s interpretation of MDCG 2020-1. The webinar will also help clarify when a clinical evaluation is required and the steps of a clinical evaluation process for these devices considering appropriate levels of clinical evidence for this group of devices.

Date: 16 March 2022

The medical device regulations specifically state that post-market clinical follow-up is a continuous process under the regulations. This webinar will look closely at the requirements relating to general and specific PMCF activities, how to document PMCF plans and reports using the MDCG 2020-7 and MDCG 2020-8 templates, and clarify when justifications for no PMCF are appropriate.
