Introduction
Definition
Classification
Regulatory registration procedure
Quality system requirements
Clinical evaluation
Investigation of medical devices
Summary
Medical devices are regulated by the National Medical Product Administration (NMPA), formerly the China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA)
Manufacturers must register their devices with the NMPA before selling or distributing in China.
The NMPA reviews all device applications and has strict requirements for submission documentation, testing, and clinical data.
Any instrument, apparatus, appliance, material, or other article whether used alone or in combination, including the software necessary for its proper application.
Diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment or alleviation of disease
Diagnosis, monitoring, treatment, alleviation of compensation for an injury or handicap conditions
Investigation, replacement or modification for anatomy or a physiological process
Control of conception
The Chinese authorities (CFDA/NMPA) have their own quality management system requirements.
However, these “GMP requirements” are very similar to ISO 13485.
Therefore, manufacturers usually submit the ISO 13485 certificate.
However, the audit will review this certificate against the Chinese GMP requirements.
These audits are regularly carried out during the approval procedure and/or after a recall.
NMPA issued and implemented the "Guideline on Inspection of Quality Management System for Medical Device Registration" on October 10, 2022.
Product Life-cycle Process
The guideline specifies the basic requirements for registration inspection, self-inspection, commissioned inspection, and extended inspection, etc. Applicant needs to:
Ensure the design, development, production, and other process data to be true, accurate, complete, and traceable, and consistent with the registration application materials.
Carry out the registration QMS inspection in reference to the registration application materials, and focus on the design, development, procurement, production management, and quality control of the product.
For lower-risk medical devices (Class I and Class II), clinical evaluation may not always be required. However, higher-risk devices (Class III and implantable devices) generally require clinical evaluation.
The evaluation involves reviewing existing clinical data, scientific literature, and relevant clinical research to assess the safety and performance of the device.
All clinical trials for medical devices must follow China Good Clinical Practices
Clinical investigations are required if no equivalent devices can be found and safety and efficacy cannot be proven with other clinical and non-clinical data.
For certain medical devices, the NMPA may require clinical investigations, especially for novel devices or those with significant risk.
Clinical investigations involve conducting studies on human subjects to generate clinical data on the safety and effectiveness of the device.
Clinical evaluation report cer in a more stringent regulatory- Pepgra HealthcarePEPGRA Healthcare
European regulatory framework has established rules that govern the development, manufacturing, and marketing of medical devices in the European market. Both European and non-European medical device manufacturer’s fall under the purview of the regulatory framework, which is established to
provide condence to the clinicians and the patients that the medical devices and the implantable devices used in the region have been validated for their potential benets and certied as safe for usage.
A clinical investigation is defined as “any systematic investigation or study in one or more human subjects, undertaken to assess the clinical performance, effectiveness or safety of medical device.”
The undertaking of a clinical investigation is a scientific process that represents one method of generating clinical data.
One of the purposes of a clinical investigation could be to establish and verify clinical safety, meaning to understand how to prevent and reduce risks, errors and harm that can happen to patients and personnel, such as doctors and nurses. The cornerstone of all clinical research is to provide a continuous improvement of treatment methods based on the understanding and learning from errors and adverse events detected.
Furthermore, the purpose of a clinical investigation can also be to establish and verify the performance of a device. This means checking the ability (or capability) of a device to perform as planned. This is done by looking at the technical, functional, or even diagnostic characteristics of the device. It needs to be verified whether it enables the manufacturer to achieve the intended purpose of the device and that it will lead to clinical benefits for patients.
Another purpose is to establish and verify clinical benefits, which is in its essence looking at the positive impact a device can have on the health of an individual. It is expressed in terms of a meaningful and measurable patient-focused outcome.
And finally, in the setting of a clinical investigation, side effects play a special role. One of the goals of a clinical investigation can be to gather additional information on the known side effects and to identify previously unknown side effects.
The overall purpose of a clinical investigation can be summed up to say that it is meant to translate scientifically tested innovations into clinical practice to provide patients with new (or improved) treatments.
A properly conducted clinical investigation, including compliance to the clinical investigation plan and local laws and regulations, ensures the protection of subjects, the integrity of the data and that the data obtained is acceptable for the purpose of demonstrating conformity to the Essential Requirements.
ISO 14155 outlines good clinical practice for clinical investigations of medical devices.

A compliant CER should support strong clinical evidence that your device achieves its intended purpose without exposing users and patients to risk. The CER must be based on clinical data, which may include clinical data from existing literature, clinical experience, clinical trials, or any combination of the three.
You are required to prepare and submit a clinical evaluation report with your technical file as part of the CE Marking/conformity assessment process. However, approach the CER as a standalone document.
Understanding Post-market Surveillance under EU MDR: Being Proactive, not Rea...Greenlight Guru
While the enforcement of EU MDR might have been delayed another year, your preparations addressing requirements for post-market surveillance (PMS) should not be! These new PMS requirements push manufacturers to take a more active role in monitoring of their devices to ensure that the benefit-risk profile of the device remains current. Performing PMS activities, according to the risk class of the device, requires a cross-functional team to ensure the required sources of data can be accessed and accurate data gathered. In this session, learn why it is important that PMS is not a one-size fits all approach, with considerations for risk of device, lifetime of device, time of the market, and more.
Talk takeaways:
• Understanding the new requirements of PMS under MDR
• What is the impact to the business?
• How do the requirements affect your current product lifecycle approach/QMS?
• Relationship between PMCF and PMS
• What to include in your plans and reports?
This session took place live at the Greenlight Guru True Quality Virtual Summit, a three-day event for medical device professionals to learn to get their devices to market faster, stay ahead of regulatory changes, and use quality as their multiplier to grow their device business.
