Keep your medical devices compliant with changing technologies

Keep your devices compliant with rapidly changing regulations.

We help medical device companies access and stay compliant in the European and Chinese markets. To commercialize devices in the European Union, a CE Mark is required. For medical devices and in vitro diagnostic (IVD) devices, this means complying with the latest regulatory requirements.

Clinical Evaluation Reports (CERs) are a crucial, ever-evolving requirement for medical device manufacturers, and creating and updating them can be an intensive and complex undertaking. We support every aspect of the CER process—writing, reviewing, or consulting with you—to help you ensure the success of your regulatory strategy.

Under the new In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR 2017/746), it is estimated that 80% of the current self-certified IVDs will be up-classified. This will mean involvement with a Notified Body and compliance with the latest regulations. If you are currently selling or plan on commercializing your IVD in the EU, we can help.
