Your Regulatory Partner from First Assessment to Market<\/h2>

Bringing a medical device or in-vitro diagnostic to the European market is one of the most demanding regulatory journeys in the world.<\/strong> The EU MDR and IVDR frameworks impose rigorous requirements on clinical evidence, technical documentation, quality systems, and post-market surveillance, and the penalties for non-compliance are significant: delayed market entry, rejected submissions, or loss of certification.<\/p>\n

MDx CRO exists to remove that burden from your team.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our Quality & Regulatory Affairs division supports medical device manufacturers, IVD companies, pharmaceutical companies, and independent laboratories across the globe that need to achieve and maintain compliance with EU and UK regulatory frameworks. Whether you are launching a new product, managing an IVDR transition, or responding to a Notified Body query, our team of 50 in-house regulatory and quality experts<\/strong> delivers the strategic guidance and hands-on execution you need to move forward with confidence.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

FAQ<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
\n
    \n
  • \n
    What is the difference between EU MDR and EU IVDR?<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n

    EU MDR (Regulation 2017\/745) governs medical devices, while EU IVDR (Regulation 2017\/746) applies specifically to in-vitro diagnostic medical devices. Both replace older directives (MDD and IVDD respectively) and impose significantly more rigorous requirements for clinical evidence, technical documentation, quality systems, and post-market surveillance. IVDR introduces a new risk-based classification system for IVDs, with the majority of previously self-certified products now requiring Notified Body involvement. MDx provides specialist support under both regulations.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n

  • \n
    Do I need an EU Authorised Representative if my company is based outside Europe?<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n

    Yes. Any manufacturer located outside the European Union that places a medical device or IVD on the EU market must appoint an EU Authorised Representative (EU AR). The EU AR is legally registered in the EU, listed in EUDAMED, and serves as the official point of contact with competent authorities. MDx provides EU AR services as part of our Representative Services offering.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n

  • \n
    What does an ISO 13485 gap assessment involve?<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n

    An ISO 13485 gap assessment compares your existing quality management system against the requirements of the ISO 13485:2016 standard. MDx evaluates your current procedures, documentation, training records, and processes, then produces a detailed report identifying non-conformities, areas of partial compliance, and recommended corrective actions. The output gives you a clear, prioritised roadmap for achieving certification.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n

  • \n
    How long does IVDR technical documentation take to prepare?<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n

    Timelines depend on the classification of your IVD, the maturity of your existing documentation, and the availability of performance data. For Class C or Class D IVDs, complete technical documentation remediation typically takes between four and ten months. MDx conducts a detailed assessment at project initiation to provide a precise timeline for your specific product and situation.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n

  • \n
    Can MDx support both our quality system and our regulatory submissions in the same project?<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n

    Yes. MDx provides integrated support across quality management, risk management, and regulatory affairs within a single coordinated project. This is one of our key differentiators \u2014 the same team understands both the quality system underpinning your product and the regulatory pathway you are pursuing, which improves consistency and reduces overall project timelines.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n

  • \n
    We are a US-based company with no EU presence. Can MDx manage the entire EU market access process for us?<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n

    This is one of the most common engagements for our team. MDx can act as your EU Authorised Representative, manage EUDAMED registration, prepare or remediate your technical documentation, implement or align your quality management system, and coordinate directly with Notified Bodies on your behalf. Many of our US and APAC clients describe this as having a fully functional EU regulatory team without needing to hire one internally.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n

  • \n
    What is MDCG 2020-13 and why does it matter for our technical file?<\/div>\n
    \n
    \n

    MDCG 2020-13 is a guidance document published by the Medical Device Coordination Group that defines how manufacturers should conduct clinical evaluations for legacy devices transitioning from MDD to MDR. It provides specific methodology for demonstrating equivalence and contextualising the state of the art. For many legacy device manufacturers, MDCG 2020-13 is one of the most consequential documents in their MDR compliance programme, and non-compliance with its methodology is a frequent cause of Notified Body queries and rejections.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/li>\n <\/ul>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n
