  12. Safety and Regulatory Affairs / Introduction - Summary - The use of medical devices involves specific risks It is the manufacturer's responsability to - identify potential risks, - evaluate the acceptability - reduce risks to an acceptable level The application of standards helps to ensure a high level of safety Documentation is necessary to demonstate appropriate risk management

  13. Siemens AXIOM Artis BA Safety and Regulatory Affairs 2. The Medical Devices Directive

  14. Medical Devices Directive - The „New Approach“ - In 1985 the European Union agreed on a "new approach" to the regulation of technical aspects of industrial products. Where harmonization of legal requirements or administrative regulations is necessary, the European Union develops regulations, which are called Council Directives or simply directives. Directives specify only the essential requirements that are general and mandatory. The detailed technical specifications that may be used to demonstrate conformity with the essential requirements are elaborated in voluntary harmonized standards. If a product complies with the requirements of a new approach directive, the manufacturer marks it with the CE-mark:

  15. Medical Devices Directive - The „New Approach“ - CE-marked goods are allowed free movement within the internal market throughout the territory of the European Economic Area (EEA). EEA = EU member states plus Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein Approach has been adopted by other states (e.g. Hungary, Czechia) and is recognized in many other countries.

  16. EU Medical Devices Directive 93/42/EWG (MDD) Harmonized Standards Medical Devices Act(MPG) Organizations for Standardization National Governments Medical Devices Directive - MDD, standards, and national legislation -

  17. Medical Devices Directive - Articles and Annexes - • 23 articles (definitions, reference to standards, ...) • Annex I Essential Requirements • Annexes II-VIII Assessment Procedures • Annex IX Classification Criteria • Annex X Clinical Evaluation • Annex XI Notified Bodies • Annex XII CE Marking

  18. Medical Devices Directive - Definition of a Medical Device - Any instrument, apparatus, appliance, material or other article, whether used alone or in combination, including the software necessary for its proper application, intended by the manu-facturer to be used for human beings for the purpose of • diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment or alleviation of diseases, injuries, or handicaps, • investigation, replacement or modification of the anatomy or of a physiological process, • control of conception, and which does not achieve its principal intended action in or on the human body by pharmacological, immunological or metabolic means.

  19. Medical Devices Directive - Examples for Medical Devices - • wheel chairs • patient beds • wound dressings • respiration tubes • products for transition of blood • blood pressure monitoring • endoscopes • x-ray • MRI • artificial joints • prosthetic heart valves • artificial joint • all accessories of medical devices (e.g. electrodes) Note: A medical device must have a proven efficacy for specific medical purposes. Neither „Miracle Products“ nor general wellness products, cosmetic products, fitness apparatus etc. (e.g. muscle training apparatus, tooth whitener etc.) are recognized as medical devices. S19

  27. Conformity Assessment - Introduction - • If a product complies with the requirements of a new approach directive, the manufacturer signs a conformity declaration. • Depending on the potential risk of the device certification by a Notified Body may be required. • If certification is a requirement as part of the conformity assessment procedure, the manufacturer has the option to choose any of the Notified Bodies in any of the Member States of the EU. • Products which require certification by a Notified Body carry the CE-marking in combination with the number of the Notified Body, for example:

  28. I * sterile or with a measuring function Conformity Assessment - Risk Classes - 18 classification rules (Annex IX) I IIa IIb III low Risk high S17

  29. intended use Conformity Assessment - Criteria for Risk Classification - • invasive / non-invasive • surgically invasive / non-surgically invasive • implantable / non-implantable • active / non-active • short-term / long-term use • application on „critical“ organs (central nervous system, central blood circulation system)

  30. Conformity Assessment - Examples for Risk Classification - • Class Iwheel chairs, patient beds, non-invasive electrodes • Class I*sterile wound dressings, thermometer • Class IIaultrasound diagnostic device,respiration tubes, blood pressure monitoring devices, products for transition of blood • Class IIbartificial joints, lithotripthers • Class IIIprosthetic heart valves, neurologic catheters S19
