New Harmonised Standards listed

On October 9th, 2024, Commission Implementing Decisions (EU) 2024/2625 and (EU) 2024/2631 were published in the Official Journal of the European Union, adopting two new harmonized standards under Regulation (EU) 2017/746 (IVDR) and one under Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (MDR). 

EN ISO 13408-1:2024 Aseptic processing of health care products – Part 1: General requirements (ISO 13408-1:2023) is now a harmonised standard under both the MDR and the IVDR, whereas EN ISO 20916:2024 In vitro diagnostic medical devices – Clinical performance studies using specimens from human subjects – Good study practice (ISO 20916:2019) is now a harmonised standard under the IVDR.

Compliance with standards ISO 13408-1:2023 or ISO 20916:2019, while not mandatory, now confers a presumption of conformity with the corresponding requirements set out in either the MDR or the IVDR.
