PMS Documentation for Software-Based Cardiovascular Imaging and Planning Tools – Audit & CE Marking Support​

PMS Documentation for Software-Based Cardiovascular Imaging and Planning Tools – Audit & CE Marking Support​

Project Summary

Support was provided for the initial MDR Clinical Evaluation Plan (CEP) and Clinical Evaluation Report (CER) for software as a medical device (SAMD) in the cardiovascular therapeutic area. This included input on other PMS documents and SOPs required for CE marking, notified body (NB) audit, and certification. The engagement began under MDD, with successful certification, and later transitioned to MDR-compliant CERs. Celegence also supported recertification processes when significant updates or version changes occurred. Additionally, Celegence provided regulatory support for a Class IIb neurovascular SAMD device. This included preparation of the MDR-compliant CEP and CER for initial CE marking and addressing NB queries, which resulted in minimal questions and a successful certification outcome.​
