  1. CE Marking for Medical Devices “Basic Steps to Compliance” Ján Petrík, PhD. EVPÚ, a.s. Nová Dubnica Medical Devices Branch Office Bratislava 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293

  2. Basic Steps to Compliance • Determining Whether or Not the Product is • Within the Scope of the Directive • Classification • Conformity Assessment Routes • Compliance to the Essential Requirements of • the Directive • Harmonized Standards • Technical File • Risk Analysis • Notified Body • Authorized Representative and Competent Authority • - Registration • Vigilance System • CE Marking • Declaration of Conformity 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293

  3. Within the Scope of the Directive? • Medical Device (MDD) 93/42/EEC • Active Implantable Medical Device (AIMD) • 90/385/EEC • In-vitro Diagnostics (IVDD) 98/79/EC • The definition will determine the scope 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293

  4. What are Medical Devices? Medical devices are defined as all devices which according to the manufacturer are intended to be used in the treatment of humans, whether it concerns diagnosing, monitoring, prevention, treatment or alleviation. 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293

  5. Classification All medical devices must comply with all relevant requirements of the Directive. Therefore the classification only serves to determine which conformity assessment procedure to apply and whether or not a notified body must co-operate. Annex IX 18 rules based on - intended use - duration of contact - degree of invasiveness - special situations 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293

  6. Classification The Directive divides the medical devices into four different classes (I, IIa, IIb and III). In addition, class I is subdivided into devices which are sold in a sterile condition and devices which are sold with a measuring function.The classification reflects the risks involved in the use of the product, the vulnerability of the parts of the body on which the devices are to be applied and the duration of use. • Classes • Class I - low risk • Class IIa - medium risk • Classes IIb & III - high risk 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293

  7. Classification Duration of Contact up to 60 minutes - ‘transient’ up to 30 days - ‘short term’ beyond 30 days - ‘long term’ 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293

  8. Classification • Degree of Invasiveness • application to body surface or into body orifice (as far as pharynx) • surgically invasive • implantable 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293

  9. Classification • Invasive + Duration of Contact • ‘transient’ - Class I • ‘short term’ - Class IIa • ‘long term’ - Class IIb 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293

  10. Conformity Assessment Route Class I (Sterile and Measuring), Class IIa, IIb, and III require the intervention of a Notified Body which will be responsible for auditing the Manufacturer’s quality system 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293

  11. In-vitro Diagnostic Devices (IVDD) • "any medical device which is a reagent, reagent product, calibrator, control material, kit, instrument, apparatus, equipment, or system, whether used alone or in combination, intended by the manufacturer to be used in-vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood and tissue donations, derived from the human body, solely or principally for the purpose of providing information: • concerning a physiological or pathological state, or • concerning a congenital abnormality, or • to determine the safety and compatibility with potential • recipients, or • to monitor therapeutic measures". 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293

  12. IVDDClassification Directive 98/79/EC divides in vitro diagnostic medical devices into the following four classes: • All devices except devices for self-testing and devices in Annex II • Devices for self-testing which are not included in Annex II • Devices in Annex II, List A • Devices in Annex II, List B 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293

  13. IVDDWho Ensures that the Requirements Are Fulfilled? The manufacturers themselves to some extent assume the responsibility of complying with the requirements.With respect to general IVDD, except from devices for self-testing and devices in Annex II, it is the manufacturer alone who carries out the necessary evaluations. In the case of devices for self-testing and devices in Annex II, the manufacturer must always have the design and/or the production of the device approved by an independent third party, a notified body, before the product may be CE-marked and marketed. 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293

  14. Technical File Technical File contains all the relevant information that is needed to demonstrate that the product meets the essential health and safety requirements of theDirective ...information on e.g. product design, manufacture, testing, risk analysis and clinical evaluations must be included in the documentation.The purpose of the documentation is to enable the manufacturer to prove that his product complies with the "Essential Requirements" of the Directive. 4/27/06 EVPÚ, a.s., NB No. 1293
