The Medical Devices Directives and their implementation into national law (medical device law and decrees) have been revised several times. They are the basis for the marketing of medical devices in Europe.
Products that do not carry the CE marking may be restricted, prohibited from sale or forced to withdraw from the European market. Manufacturers and authorized representatives or anyone responsible for placing products on the European market can be held personally liable for damages or injury.
The existing guidelines with respect to the Medical Devices Directives are permanently being updated and extended. Medical device manufacturers, designers and suppliers have to adjust to these new and changed rules and carry out all associated procedures in order to comply with all mandatory EU requirements.
Who is responsible for what? What are the administrative procedures? Is a Notified Body required? Is there a relation between CE Marking and ISO? Those and more questions will be handled in this seminar.
