Comparing EU and FDA Approaches to Regulating MedTech Software
Medical technology software forms an important part of the medical device industry and recent changes to the regulatory landscape across regions, with respect to the classification and approval process of medical devices, is bound to affect the medical technology industry. While the FDA approval process requires that the device be proved efficacious in comparison to a control device or be substantially equivalent to a predicate device, the EU approval process is based on the intended function of a medical device.
Differences in Clinical Evaluations and Investigations Under the EU
The EU MDR officially replaces the Active Implantable Medical Device Directive and the Medical Device Directive for medical devices. The EU MDR has a key objective of ensuring health and safety of EU citizens by making the medical device regulation more stringent with respect to the requirements for clinical investigation and evaluation. Clinical evaluation for medical devices is necessary to receive a CE mark which is imperative to market medical devices in the European Economic Area.
