(1) …a fundamental revision of those Directives is needed to establish a robust, transparent, predictable and sustainable regulatory framework for medical devices which ensures a high level of safety and health whilst supporting innovation.
(4) Key elements of the existing regulatory approach, such as the supervision of notified bodies, conformity assessment procedures, clinical investigations and clinical evaluation, vigilance and market surveillance should be significantly reinforced, whilst provisions ensuring transparency and traceability regarding medical devices should be introduced, to improve health and safety.

(74) Manufacturers should play an active role during the post-market phase by systematically and actively gathering information from post-market experience with their devices in order to update their technical documentation and cooperate with the national competent authorities…
Manufacturers should establish a comprehensive PMS system, set up under their quality management system and based on a PMS plan.
Relevant data and information gathered through PMS, as well as lessons learned from any implemented CAPAs, should be used to update any relevant part of technical documentation, such as those relating to risk assessment and clinical evaluation, and should also serve the purpose of transparency.

The new European Medical Device Regulation (MDR):• Signed into law on 5 April 2017• Published in the Official Journal of the European Union on 5 May 2017• Entry into force on 25 May 2017 (start of transition period)• Applies from (date of application) 26 May 2020• Phased implementation requirements through 2025• The in vitro diagnostic medical device regulation (IVDR) was also publsihed
– with a date of application of 26 May 2022
The Commission expects the Regulations to improve the quality, safety and reliability of medical devices, while also strengthening the transparency of information for consumers, and enhancing vigilance and market surveillance.

• Article 5 – A device may be placed on the market or put into service only if it complies with this Regulation…
• (99) The requirements of this Regulation should be applicable to all devices placed on the market or put into service from the DofA…
• In order to provide for a smooth transition it should be possible, for a limited period of time from that date, for devices to be placed on the market or put into service by virtue of a valid certificate issued pursuant to the MDD/AIMD
Article 120(2) – Certificates issued by NBs in accordance with the MDD/AIMD:• prior to 25 May 2017 – remain valid until end date (w/some exceptions)• from 25 May 2017 – valid until end date (not>5 years) – latest 27 May 2024
Transitional Provisions

After DoA, devices placed on the market pursuant to the MDD/AIMD may continue to be made available until 27 May 2025 – provided they continue to comply and there are no significant changes in the design and intended purpose.
However, the requirements of the MDR relating to:• post-market surveillance, • market surveillance, • vigilance, • registration of economic operators and of devices • [Unique Device Identification]shall apply in place of the MDD/AIMD requirements.

Since most class I devices do NOT have certificates issued by NBs:• Class I devices placed on the market before 26 May 2020 – may continue to
be made available until 27 May 2025 (“sell-off” period)• Only those class I devices with measurement function or in sterile condition
covered by a valid MDD certificate can be placed on the market after DoA• MDR requires NB oversight for class I devices that are placed on the market
in sterile condition, have a measuring function, or are reusable surgical instruments (class I s/m/r)
However, the requirements of the MDR relating to post-market surveillance, market surveillance, vigilance, registration of economic operators and of devices shall apply in place of the MDD/AIMD requirements

These 2 “workstreams” need to be considered in parallel – as many of the activities in #2 need to be started now – in addition to the work in #1:
1. For “legacy” devices – by 26 May 2020 – to continue to place on the market:• Post-market surveillance, market surveillance, and vigilance• Registration of economic operators and devices• UDI Marking (phased implementation) and Traceability• Enhanced responsibilities of other economic operators
2. For most class I, “new” (or significantly changed), and expired certificate devices – all of the above requirements and these additional requirements:• CE Marking certificates issued (or self-certify) according to the MDR• QMS developed according to ISO 13485:2016 (deemed to meet MDR)

To place any device on the market, including legacy devices with valid MDD/AIMD certificates, after 26 May 2020 – the devices must meet the MDR requirements related to:1. Post-market surveillance2. Market surveillance3. Vigilance4. Registration of economic operators5. Registration of devices 6. Unique Device Identification7. Enhanced responsibilities of other economic operators8. Identification of devices in the supply chain and Traceability
