WHEN IT APPLIES
Benefit-risk determination weighs clinical benefits against residual risks and uncertainties. It is central to FDA PMA/De Novo decisions and EU MDR GSPR/clinical evaluation conclusions.
PROCESS / STEPS
- Quantify benefits (clinical outcomes, claims) with appropriate evidence.
- Characterize residual risks after mitigations and probability/severity.
- Address uncertainty, alternatives, and state of the art.
- Document decision logic for regulators and update with PMS data.
EXAMPLES
- A high-risk implant may be favorable if life-saving benefit outweighs known complication rates with informed consent and monitoring.
