About Course

A practical course discussing the EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) in real-world situations.

The EU Medical Device Regulations (MDR 2017/745) represents the biggest change to medical device legislation in Europe for over 20 years. The MDR affects all medical device manufacturers (and others!) wanting to sell devices in the EU. This course focuses on the practical application of the MDR, using real-world examples and exercises to help you understand not only what the Regulations mean, but what we need to do to comply with them.

Written and developed by a group of Regulatory Affairs professionals currently working in industry, this course focuses on the most common issues and questions we receive from medical device manufacturers looking to transition to the MDR.
