Course overview
Understand where, when and how performance evaluation should be undertaken during the life cycle of an IVD device under the IVDR (2017/746).
The EU In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Device Regulation (IVDR) 2017/746, came into force in May 2017, with an initial transition period of five years, and an intention to strengthen the current approval system for in vitro diagnostics in Europe through an evidenced based Notified Body review system. A key area of change is the minimisation of self-certification, and the introduction of mandatory documentation for the planning and reporting of the manufacturer’s clinical evidence to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the IVD device under evaluation.
IVDeology and Management Forum have developed a highly interactive training programme to provide a deep-dive into the nine documents mandated in Annex XIII - Performance Evaluation, Performance Studies and Post-market Performance.
We shall answer what information is required, where to put it and when. The primary documents we will review are as follows:
- Performance Evaluation Plan
- Scientific Validity Report
- Analytical Performance Report
- Clinical Performance Study Plan
- Clinical Performance Study Report
- Clinical Performance Report
- Performance Evaluation Report
- Post-Market Performance Follow-up Plan
- Post-Market Performance Follow-up Report
Special offer:
Expand your understanding of IVDR requirements by also attending our 'Introduction to the New Performance Evaluation Requirements Mandated Under the IVDR (2017/746)' course. This training provides a comprehensive overview of performance evaluation throughout the life cycle of an IVD device, essential for ensuring regulatory compliance.

Jane Leadsham is a IVD Medical Device professional with 10 years experience gained working in in vitro diagnostic Medical device development firstly for Novartis Pharmaceuticals, and currently as a consultant regulatory medical writer. Jane specializes in supporting IVD manufacturers to meet the performance evaluation requirements of (EU) IVD Regulation 2017/746.
Jane has held several senior R&D scientist roles for both an in vitro diagnostic manufacturer and a biotech company and completed a five-year post-doctoral research project at the University of Kent. This cross-sector industry/academia experience has provided Jane with a thorough but diverse knowledge of research, development and product commercialization.
As a consultant medical writer to the IVD industry, under the (EU) IVD Regulations 2017/746, Jane has worked on end-to-end projects, including with Notified Bodies, and successfully completed CE certification of a Class C IVD device. Jane has completed performance evaluation documents for:
- three CDx devices including preparation of documents required for interventional performance evaluation studies,
- legacy devices transitioning from IVDD to IVDR, Classes A to D, and
- new devices in Classes A to C,
- complete sample to result fully automated systems, and
- near-patient testing/point of care device
Jane has also provided training programs on the performance evaluation requirements of the (EU) IVD Regulation 2017/746 to five device manufacturers. One manufacturer, with a complex, near-patient testing, Class D device, used Jane to provide template documents and regular on-going training and support for staff to complete the performance evaluation documents themselves. Further, Jane has acted as a third-party reviewer for performance evaluation documents written by external contractors, including AI.
As a Principal Scientist, and member of a near-patient testing device development team, with Novartis Pharmaceuticals, Jane led a group of scientists in conjunction with a CRO to design, develop and manufacture a key component of a cardiac marker immunoassay within the target timeline. Jane was part of the team that planned and executed a prospective clinical trial to assess the performance of the near-patient device .
