Clinical Evaluation Report Compliance Testing
The Clinical Evaluation Report (CER) is a critical document in the medical device regulatory process. It substantiates that a medical device complies with all relevant regulatory requirements and has been evaluated for safety, performance, and effectiveness according to the intended use. This service ensures your CER meets the stringent guidelines set forth by global regulatory bodies such as the European Union (EU) via the Medical Device Regulation (MDR), the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and other national authorities.
Our team of experts provides comprehensive testing services to ensure that your device’s CER is compliant with all applicable regulations. We understand the complexity involved in preparing a robust CER, which includes identifying relevant EU Directives, harmonized standards, and technical files. Our service covers critical aspects such as clinical investigations, risk assessment, design history file review, and more.
Compliance testing for your CER is essential to avoid non-compliance issues that could delay market entry or even result in product recalls. By ensuring all necessary tests are conducted thoroughly and accurately, we help streamline the regulatory approval process. Our approach ensures you meet not only EU MDR but also other international standards such as ISO 14971:2016, which mandates a risk management process for medical devices.
Our team works closely with your R&D engineers to ensure that all tests are conducted in line with the intended use and market requirements. This collaboration ensures that the CER is not only compliant but also robust enough to withstand scrutiny from regulatory authorities.
The testing process includes a detailed review of clinical data, including adverse event reports, post-market surveillance data, and any other relevant information. We ensure that all aspects of the device’s safety profile are thoroughly evaluated, covering both in vitro and in vivo scenarios where applicable.
Our service also extends to preparing technical documentation required for submission with your CER. This includes but is not limited to design history files, manufacturing information, and any other supporting documents necessary for regulatory approval. Our expertise ensures that all documentation is accurate, complete, and meets the highest standards of quality.
To further enhance our service, we offer tailored training sessions for your quality managers and compliance officers on how to prepare a robust CER. These sessions cover best practices in clinical evaluation reporting and ensure that your team is well-equipped to handle regulatory requirements effectively.
