Course overview
Clinical evidence is crucial to bringing a device to market and is a very important aspect of post-market compliance to meet the requirements of current legislation. The collection of clinical data to demonstrate safety and performance is pivotal to CE marking a medical device and the collection of post-market data is key to the continued safety and performance considerations once the device is on the market.
This practical and intensive two-day course has been designed specifically for those who are involved in gathering clinical evidence required for medical devices. It will cover the full range of activities that should be applied during the collection of clinical evidence for both pre- and post-market studies and will also provide delegates with information on the European regulations for gathering clinical evidence and conducting medical device studies. Participants will benefit from advice and tips from industry experts on the practicalities of conducting studies within Europe as well as the types of clinical data to collect in order to be compliant with the new MDR.

Overall it was a great opportunity to get more awareness on clinical studies with medical devices. The documentation provided was very clear and provided valuable input for setting procedures in my company. The speakers were very open to interaction and there was enough time for discussion.
