Introduzione
The EU Medical Devices Regulation (MDR) 2017/745, together with evolving standards and guidance, introduces significant changes affecting the labelling of medical devices. These updates directly impact manufacturers’ regulatory strategies and product compliance activities.
This online training course provides participants with a clear overview of:
- The regulatory requirements for medical device labelling under MDR.
- The influence of guideline documents on labelling activities.
- Practical preparation steps for achieving compliance from a regulatory labelling perspective.
- Case study discussions to connect requirements with real-world applications.
By the end of the course, participants will gain a solid understanding of regulatory labelling requirements under MDR and learn how to implement hands-on strategies for compliance.
