Summary

MDR Suite – A source of information for O&P Professionals

The aim of the new EU-wide and uniform regulations is to ensure patient safety and to enhance the quality of medical devices on the European market for the benefit of all. Manufacturers in particular are facing major challenges, as the implementation of the new requirements involves high effort and costs. The extent to which the changes arising from those regulatory replacement affects your business depends on the role you hold.

This website focuses on the new Medical Device Regulation 2017/745 (MDR) for manufacturers of custom-made devices. This new Medical Device Regulation 2017/745 (MDR) will play a significant role of patient care providers that create products like prosthetics, orthotics or wheelchairs. Creating prosthesis or orthosis is patient specific and therefore requires special documents which this website can help provide as information or as a template. This website will not take over your responsibility or liability, but we can offer support to be compliant to the Medical Device Regulation 2017/745 (MDR).

It is therefore necessary that you can assign yourself and your patient care activities to one or more roles described by MDR. This decision tree will help you to do so. You need only answer a few questions to see the appropriate role or the economic operator to which you are assigned.

Check compliancy

Are you already well prepared?

At some point you will reach the moment where you say:
"We have revised all necessary existing processes or even introduced new processes and are now well established."

In order to remove the last uncertainties you may still have, we provide you with a compliance checklist that you can use to check whether you have really thought of everything. It is easy for something, even a small detail, to be forgotten. And that would be very unfortunate, considering the work you and your team have put into implementing this project.

Here you find three lists that can be used for self assessment. Please note that if you are acting in the role of different economic operators, several checklists are relevant for you.

Requirement

Requirements towards patient care providers

When you fabricate and provide a custom-made device for a patient, you are a manufacturer of custom-made devices and must comply with the following requirements:

  • Draw up a statement according to Annex XIII for the custom-made device and Article 22 for the patient solution.

  • Mark devices as „custom-made device“.

  • Have a person responsible for regulatory compliance (PRRC).

  • Economic operators that devices were received from or supplied to must be identified.

In addition to that, you must implement the following processes:

  • Risk management

  • Clinical evaluation

  • Post-market surveillance (PMS)

  • Vigilance

Requirements

Risk Management

The risk management process requests the creation of a risk management file per patient solution group. The risk management system is a regulatory requirement.
The main aspect is to identify hazards with the products and to identify measures for risk control.
A risk management file consists of:
RM plan
Risk analysis and control
RM report

Documentation Effort

The documentation effort depends on the activity that is performed and thus on the role that you as a patient care provider currently hold. We have compared the documentation effort for three selected economic operators.
