Medical Device Regulation (MDR)

The Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745/EU replaced the medical device directives consisting of the Directive 93/42/EEC on medical devices (MDD) and Directive 90/385/EEC on active implantable medical devices (AIMD).

The MDR imposes stricter requirements than the predecessor directives and transform the way you do business in the EU. Thus, finding your way through the regulatory medical device landscape can be difficult because it requires up-to-date knowledge, experience, and contacts. Our regulatory team guides you along the most efficient and optimal strategic path to CE-mark, device registration and approval outside EU and support in building up and use post market surveillance.

Regulatory Affairs Services- Medical Devices

The areas in which we can make a difference include:

Risk Classification & Technical Files

We perform risk classification of the devices and regulatory pathway with reference to the intended use.

Technical files

We perform a gap assessment of existing technical documentations that support the safety and performance against the requirements of the applicable regulation MDR. This includes establishment and maintenance of the necessary technical files to support the General Safety and Performance Requirements (GSPR).

Biocompatibility and Toxicological Risk Assessment

We help you bring your device into compliance with the new MDR requirements: Perform Biological evaluation Plan, Toxicological Risk Assessment and Biological Evaluation Report, as well as chemical characterization. This includes to evaluate changes in regulatory standards.

Clinical Evaluation & Investigations

Managing projects for clinical investigations. Gather and analyse suitable scientific literatures. Prepare the Clinical Evaluation Plan & Report covering all device risk classes. Maintain and update to CEP/CER per MDR.

Risk Management and Risk Analysis

Planning, performing, and reporting of Risk Management activities and Risk Analysis of products and processes.

Submissions & Notified Bodies

We manage submission of technical documentation to Notified Bodies and maintain efficient contact with Notified Bodies.

Post Market Surveillance/ Periodic Safety Update Report

We provide advice and support on the establishment and maintenance of Post-Market Surveillance procedures demonstrating the activities of PMS plan, PMS report, PMCF plan and PSU report.

International regulatory projects

We work in Denmark, Sweden, Finland, UK, Ireland, and USA with Medical Devices and in vitro diagnostic medical devices. 

ABOUT US

Helping Companies Successfully Transition from Innovation to Regulated Healthcare and Product Safety

Founded in 2009, TOX Regulatory Advisor ApS is an independent consultancy specialising in Regulatory Affairs, Clinical Affairs, Quality Management and Toxicology.

For more than 15 years, we have supported organisations across the medical device, in vitro diagnostic (IVD), pharmaceutical, chemical and cosmetic sectors in navigating complex regulatory, scientific and quality requirements throughout the entire product lifecycle.

Our expertise spans Europe, North America, Asia, Latin America, Africa and the BRICS countries, supporting organisations from early product development through regulatory approval, market access and post-market activities.

As healthcare continues to evolve through Artificial Intelligence (AI), connected technologies and digital health solutions, regulatory expectations are evolving as well.

Today, our expertise has expanded to support organisations developing AI-enabled medical devices and Software as a Medical Device (SaMD), helping bridge the requirements of the EU Medical Device Regulation (EU MDR 2017/745), the EU Artificial Intelligence Act (EU AI Act 2024/1689) and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Successfully bringing AI-enabled medical devices to market requires more than software development alone. It requires the integration of regulatory affairs, quality management, risk management, design controls, validation, clinical affairs, human factors, data governance and lifecycle management into a coherent development strategy.

At Tox Regulatory Advisor, we help organisations bridge these technical, clinical and regulatory requirements to support the development of safe, effective and compliant healthcare products.

Alongside our expertise in AI-enabled medical devices, we continue to support manufacturers of medical devices, IVDs, pharmaceuticals, chemicals and cosmetic products through practical scientific, regulatory and quality solutions tailored to their business needs.
