SIQ: Online-Workshop: Medical Devices – Guidelines for Preparing Technical Documentation (3 days)

This workshop will be in English and is part of our new academy cooperation with the Slowenian notified body SIQ!

About the training

Regulation (EU) 2017/745 on Medical Devices (MDR) also deals with the preparation of a technical documentation to demonstrate conformity of a medical device. A technical documentation has gained in importance in the process of demonstrating compliance, and its preparation is of focal importance. The content and complexity are determined by various factors, especially the classification, intended use, type of a device, specific properties of the product, method of production, etc.

Participants get familiar with the requirements relating to medical devices and the current legislation, as well as with the requirements for the conformity of medical devices. Based on practical examples, the participants get to know the tools for identifying the need for compliance of a device with harmonized standards, which directly affects the structure and content of the technical documentation. Based on the acquired knowledge and the consideration of practical examples, the participants prepare a short study – a draft technical documentation for a medical device.
