Medical Device Regulation - Clinical Evaluation and Usability Testing


Details
Do you work for a digital health startup? Are you even a medical product? Then you might be familiar with the term Medical Device Directive (MDD) and its successor Medical Device Regulation (MDR) that will become active in May 2020. This might sound like a dry topic, but it will have a real impact on the medical device field. We in Vivy have learned a lot by going throughout the whole process ourselves. We want to share our experiences with the health startup community.
We believe that health startups are stronger together and everybody benefits from sharing insights. Together with Berlin healthcare startups, we have initiated a series of events that focus on MDR requirements, where the goal is to bring experts together and engage participants to gain practical insights.
Together with the lovely people at Ada Health, we will host a third MDR deep dive and workshop Meetup on clinical evaluation and usability testing. We will form informal working groups interested to discuss the topic. Attendees will benefit from the group's shared knowledge and experience. This event will be especially valuable for quality managers, product owners, clinical research leads, product designers, and UX researchers.
Please register at the Eventbrite link below before August 15. Note: confirmation of attendance on the Meetup page alone is NOT sufficient.
