As of April 2022:

90% of currently valid AIMD/MDD certificates were set to expire in 2023.
50% of resubmitted applications were deemed incomplete.
30 notified bodies are designated under MDR, managing 80% of current AIMD/MDD certificates.

Despite the extension recently approved by the European Commission, the transition to the EU MDR is a complex and ongoing process that requires careful attention to detail and a commitment to ongoing compliance. Manufacturers should work closely with notified bodies and other regulatory experts to ensure that they understand the new requirements and have a plan in place to meet them. Failure to comply with the EU MDR can result in an inability to market devices in the European Union.

Learn the key steps to ensure compliance with the new EU MDR regulations, avoid common pitfalls, and successfully navigate the transition process from industry leaders Thomas Moore, PhD and Sam Mostafavi, MSc, MBA from PTL Solutions.
