O novo guia EUDAMED para o registo de dispositivos médicos Legacy fornece instruções práticas e detalhadas para fabricantes que operam sob as diretivas MDD ou AIMDD. A transição para o MDR exige que os dispositivos legacy sejam identificados com EUDAMED DI e EUDAMED ID, mesmo na ausência de um UDI-DI. Este registo na base de dados EUDAMED é fundamental para garantir a conformidade regulamentar e manter a colocação dos dispositivos no mercado europeu.

The new EUDAMED guide for legacy devices is an essential tool for medical device manufacturers who continue to operate under the previous MDD and AIMDD directives, but want to remain compliant during the transition period to Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (MDR). The document covers the assignment of EUDAMED DI and EUDAMED ID codes, the structured registration of legacy devices, the management of certificates and linking to already registered regulated devices. With practical guidelines and examples of accepted formats, this guide contributes to strengthening the traceability, compliance and regulatory security of legacy devices still on the European market.
