About the MDR & ISO 13485:2016
Medical device companies that intend to sell their products in the European market place must comply with the MDR legislation (EU 2017/745). This set of regulations came into effect as of May 2021 and replaced the Medical Device Directive (MDD). This change has introduced reclassification, new requirements and additional clinical & post-market activities for manufacturers of medical devices.
QMS requirements
The Medical Device Regulation also requires the manufacturer of medical devices and related services to establish an appropriate QMS for the design, manufacture, and use of the devices. The ISO 13485:2016 standard specifies the requirements for a QMS where an organization needs to demonstrate its ability to provide medical devices and related services that consistently meet customer and relevant regulatory requirements. Requirements of ISO 13485:2016 are applicable to organizations regardless of their size.
