Medical Devices in the EU: CE Mark and 93/42/EEC DirectiveThis webinar will provide valuable assistance and guidance to all regulated companies that are preparing for CE Mark and ensuring compliance to MDD 93/42/EEC.
Description Originally created July 12, 1993 and mandatory since June 14, 1998, the Directive requires that companies wishing to sell medical devices within the EU must meet the requirements under the directive. The regulations under this mandate can vary from member country to member country concerning translation of key documents to other regulatory laws specific to that region. These additions supplement the set of harmonized standards put in place by the European Commission. These harmonized standards serve to free the flow of goods from one market to another within the EU Medical Device industry. Today, all medical devices sold in the EU must have the CE marking affixed to demonstrate compliance to this directive. If your device falls within the scope of the Medical Devices Directive, then you must meet the essential requirements of that law. Areas Covered in the seminar:
