- Practical implementation
The European Medical Device Regulation (MDR, 2017/745) has been in force since 2017. Every manufacturer of medical devices from Class I to III is legally obliged to establish, document, apply, maintain, constantly update and continuously improve a quality management system. The MDR requirements also apply to economic operators involved, such as EU authorised representatives, suppliers and importers. The requirements of the MDR go well beyond the contents of the current standards ISO 13485:2016 or ISO 9001:2015. This seminar teaches you the regulatory basics and necessary content from the MDR for quality management systems. We will show you the need to update existing systems and provide you with the necessary knowledge so that you can upgrade your QM system for the MDR. In our one-day seminar, you will acquire a compact overview in order to set up new and necessary elements in accordance with the MDR in the quality management system.
