Dans le monde en constante évolution des réglementations et de la conformité, il est essentiel de garder une longueur d'avance et d'être proactif. L'extension de la déclaration d'application (DoA) du règlement relatif aux dispositifs médicaux (MDR) est l'un des domaines qui requièrent notre attention. Bien qu'il puisse être tentant de se détendre et de retarder le processus de demande, il est important d'être intelligent et anticyclique. Dans cet article de blog, nous allons explorer l'importance d'être proactif et fournir des conseils sur la façon de naviguer efficacement dans les échéances à venir.

The Urgency of the Situation

Upon learning about the extension of the MDR DoA, it's understandable to assume that more time is now available to prepare the necessary documents. However, this assumption is far from reality. The clock is ticking, and there is no time to waste. By May 25th, 2024, which is less than a year away, you must submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) to your chosen Notified Body. Just four months after that, the application must be mutually accepted and signed.

The Techfile Challenge

To successfully pass through the gate of regulatory compliance, you will need to provide a comprehensive Techfile that includes up to 80 different documents. Based on experience, the process may require several iterations before everything is in order. Given the complexity and potential hurdles, it is critical to start the application process without delay.

Avoiding the Last-Minute Rush

As the deadline approaches, the number of stragglers scrambling to meet the requirements will inevitably increase. By getting ahead of the curve and applying now, you can avoid the uncertainty and stress associated with being a last-minute applicant. Getting ahead of the curve not only increases your chances of a smooth approval process, but also allows ample time for any necessary revisions or clarifications.
