Current Alternatives To EUDAMED
The launch of EUDAMED for May 2022, which correlates with the date of application of Regulation (EU) 2017/746 on in vitro diagnostic medical devices (IVDR). In this regard, the official launch of EUDAMED in May 2022 does not affect the date of application of the MDR on 26 May 2021.
MDR addresses the possibility that EUDAMED is not fully functional on the date of application of the MDR (26 May 2021). Until EUDAMED is fully functional, the MDR stipulates that the corresponding provisions of Directives 90/385/EEC4 and 93/42/EEC5 shall continue to apply for the purpose of meeting the obligations regarding the exchange of information.
