New Medical Device Vigilance Guidelines

Speaker

Location
  • Duration: 60 Min
This Medical device training will provide valuable assistance and guidance to all medical device companies and user facilities involved in medical device vigilance. A revised medical device guidance document on post marketing vigilance (MEDDEV 2.12-1 rev 5) was published in April 2007 by the European Commission and came into force on January 1, 2008. The 2007 update provides more guidance than the previous version, introduced in 2001, and includes new reporting terminology and concepts such as periodic summary reporting and trend reporting. In addition, the terms advisory notice, near incident, and recall have been eliminated or replaced.

The vigilance guidelines are part of a set of European medical device guidelines, known as MEDDEV documents, which are intended to promote a common approach by all involved parties on interpreting and complying with the Medical Device Directive. MEDDEV includes new reporting terminology and concepts such as “periodic summary reporting” and “trend reporting.” In addition, the timescale for reporting incidents is stricter. The terms “advisory notice,” “near incident” and “recall” have been eliminated or replaced by the new terms. As with the 2001 version, the new version refers to the incorporation of the views of the Global Harmonization Task Force (GHTF) into the European context.

Read Frequently Asked Questions

 

This indicates a continuing support of the regulatory harmonization initiatives of the GHTF. Although the MEDDEVs are not legally binding, it is likely that all Competent Authorities will follow the procedures outlined in the new guidelines and expect manufacturers, their authorized representatives and others involved in the management and reporting of adverse incidents to follow them as well. Although a transition period was allowed until the end of 2007, the revised guidelines will undoubtedly result in the need for manufacturers, authorized representatives, and distributors to quickly make substantial changes to their standard operating procedures (SOPs) and other documents.

Manufacturers marketing medical devices in Europe, as well as their distributors and authorized representatives, urgently need to review the revised guidance document in detail. It is essential that manufacturers make the necessary changes to their quality management system and are ready to implement the new postmarket vigilance reporting guidelines that were implemented in January 2008.

Areas Covered in the seminar:

  • Learn about the latest changes to MEDDEV and Medical Device Vigilance and impact on medical device manufacturers.
  • Understand the "new" terminology and concepts.
  • How to report incidents as recommended by the guidance.
  • Understand the expectations for reporting and timelines.
  • Understand which amendments impact the European vigilance system.
  • Understand the guidelines that cover incidents involving devices that carry the CE mark and devices that do not.
  • Understand why the guidelines contain some controversial aspects, including the extension of their scope and the new approach of immediate reporting unless delays can be justified.
  • Learn why GHTF is an integral component of the new post marketing vigilance guidelines and the expectations for reporting and timelines.
