New issued Guidance of medical device and IVD up to date
Chinese guidance of medical deivce und IVD (2021- up to date)
In General
We will trace all issued general and product specific guidance of medical device and IVD with analysis as of 2021. In additional to general and product specific standards in parallel, it helps you as legal manufacturers to prepare upcoming registration of medical device and IVD with full compliance.
Why is guidance important
The new issued guidance incorporates essential requirements of submission dossier. Oft are details of performance parameters, risk management, type testing, product technical requirement, clinical evaluation, clinical study, labelling, verification and validation specified. It is wise to fulfil these new additional requirements to avoid deficiency in the next product registration.
Unlike standards, guidance of medical device and IVD has no transition period. It means when draft is to published, legal manufacturers should be aware of new requirements. Once the guidance is issued, the new requirements have to be fulfilled in the upcoming and next registration.
