Get the certainty you need to continue operating your in-house devices without hesitation

This seminar provides the perfect foundation for understanding the IVDR requirements for in-house IVD medical devices (IH-IVD), often called laboratory developed tests (LDT), and determi­ning what needs to be done and in what order. You will then have the knowledge you need to continue using your IH-IVD in compliance with the law.

I particularly liked the high level of information, the presentation style, and the practical relevance. Questions were welcome anytime, and specific questions and situations relating to individual seminar participants were addressed.

The seminar is characterized by a high degree of interaction, discussion, and exchange. It is particularly important to us to provide the content in a practical manner. In addition to the seminar documents, you will receive further helpful templates and mind maps that you can use to get started immediately in your organization.

Consider the bigger picture: Learn about the connection with other relevant regula­tions and standards

Our lecturer will encourage you to think outside the box and discuss the interaction between the IVDR and other regulations. We will compare the requirements of the IVDR and MDCG 2023-1 with those of ISO 15189, ISO 22367, Rili-BÄK, and regulations such as MPBetreibV and MPAMIV.

Certificate

There is a voluntary online exam at the end of the seminar (duration: approx. 20 min). By passing this exam, you will receive a certificate proving your newly acquired knowledge and skills in addition to your attendance confirmation.
