CE-marking
OBLIGATORY EUROPEAN LABEL
In
conformity with the requirements of the European Medical Device Regulation
(MDR), any medical device sold on the European market needs to bear the CE
marking of conformity (for all Medical Devices Classes), followed by the
identification number of the notified body responsible for the conformity
assessment procedures (for all Medical Devices Classes, apart from Class I). This
obligation does not concern the medical devices used during a clinical
investigation, and there are few other exceptions. Medicina Legatis verifies if
this obligation is fulfilled, along with other conformity tasks, when a
non-European manufacturer introduces a new medical device on the European
market.
