WHEN IT APPLIES
MDD (93/42/EEC) was the prior EU medical device directive, replaced by EU MDR. Legacy certificates may still be in transition depending on class and timelines.
PROCESS / STEPS
- Confirm whether any portfolio still relies on MDD certificates.
- Map each device to MDR class and NB capacity.
- Plan technical documentation uplift (clinical, PMS, UDI).
- Track certificate expiry and progressive rollout obligations.
EXAMPLES
- A Class IIb device may still operate under an extended MDD certificate while preparing MDR technical docs.
