Enforced since May 2021, the MDR replaced the older Medical Device Directive (MDD), demanding greater transparency and accountability from manufacturers operating within the EU market.
Navigating the complex landscape of global medical device regulations can be a daunting task for regulatory professionals and medical device companies. With each country enforcing its own set of rules and standards, ensuring compliance across multiple markets requires a strategic approach and in-depth knowledge. This guide aims to provide you with key insights and strategies to master multi-country medical device regulations, helping you expand your market reach effectively and confidently.
