Clinical evaluation
The MDR requires that clinical data is generated, collected and analyzed throughout the medical device lifecycle. Very often this process is only initiated while the clinical investigation already started. Clinical evaluation should be the starting point of doing a clinical study, as this process defines the questions to be answered and the data needed. Therefore, we encourage our clients to initiate clinical evaluation at an early product development phase, often during pre-clinical testing. Amongst others, our services include the joint development of:
-
Clinical Development Plan
-
Clinical Evaluation Plan
-
Clinical Evaluation Report
-
Post-Market Surveillance Plan
-
Post-Market Clinical Follow-up Plan
Legal Representative
When a Sponsor of a clinical investigation is not established in the European Union, the Sponsor should ensure that a Legal Representative is established in the EU. BeVinced can act as Legal Representative, herewith ensuring compliance of Sponsor obligations pursuant to the MDR. As Legal Representative, BeVinced will confirm the availability of required documentation and be the addressee for all communications with the Sponsor provided for in the MDR.
