WHEN IT APPLIES
EU MDR Class IIb includes higher medium-risk devices (e.g., many long-term invasive, active therapeutic devices). Clinical evaluation and NB scrutiny are substantially deeper than IIa.
PROCESS / STEPS
- Confirm rule-based classification and borderline analysis if needed.
- Plan clinical evidence strategy early (equivalent device literature vs investigations).
- Select NB with appropriate designation codes and capacity.
- Implement robust PMS/PMCF and, when implantable/high-risk, SSCP expectations.
EXAMPLES
- Ventilators, dialysis equipment, and many implantable devices (depending on rules) sit in IIb/III bands.
