Medical Device Regulatory Update – February 2020

On this Regulatory Update, we will talk about many diverse topics but here is an outline.
First, we will review the Coronavirus situation and I will also provide you with some fun facts that are happening.
Then we will talk about MDCG committee. We’ll review the guidance issued and the topics they will discuss during this march meeting.
After that, we will discuss the Notified Body Situation. How many are available? Who are the new ones?
Finally, we’ll review some US guidance that are issued and even a Ban of a certain device.
I will also take the opportunity of this review to review all the topics that were discussed on the podcast, and also the LinkedIn Live.
I really hope this will be informative to you.
