A new guidance from the Medical Device Coordination Group (MDCG) clarifies that software as a medical device (SaMD) product can operate under a limited amount of regulatory oversight when deployed only in a single healthcare entity, which gives smaller developers an opportunity to gain a foothold in the European Union (EU) while they add to their to-market capabilities.
The Medical Device Coordination Group (MDCG) has released a new position paper, which reviews the means by which Article 97 of the Medical Device Regulation (MDR) can be applied to devices that have not been certified under the MDR. The paper states that the decision on whether to allow a device to remain on the market is up to the competent authority (CA) of record for the device, and that the device manufacturer may have only a one-year grace period before it will have to obtain a new marketing authorization under the MDR.

Medical Device Production Systems a Significant Regulatory Undertaking
The latest draft guidance from the International Medical Device Regulators Forum (IMDRF) indicates that verification and validation (V&V) of the medical device production system (MDPS) is a complex matter, as is the question of who assumes the regulatory responsibility for the maintenance and use of these systems.
The International Medical Device Regulators Forum has produced a final working draft for verification and validation (V&V) of a personalized medical device (PMD), a much-needed source of regulatory harmonization. The document also addresses V&V for the medical device production system (MDPS) that will be used to manufacture PMDs.
