European Commission 

 

The European Commission has published two Implementing Decisions regarding harmonized standards for medical devices and IVDs:

 

  • Implementing Decision (EU) 2026/193: This amendment introduces 12 new or revised harmonized standards. Key additions include EN ISO 14630:2024 (non-active surgical implants), EN ISO 17665:2024 (sterilization by moist heat), and the EN ISO 18562:2024 series (biocompatibility of breathing gas pathways).

 

  • Implementing Decision (EU) 2026/197 : Focuses on sterilization and manufacturer-supplied information. It adopts the EN ISO 18113:2024 series (Parts 1–5) for IVD labelling and EN ISO 17665:2024 for moist heat sterilization.

 

Swissmedic

 

Swissmedic conducted an inspection campaign of 30 importers between March and November 2025 to verify device conformity and importer obligations. Results of 2025 Focus Campaign on Importers is as follows:

 

  • 57% of inspected importers (17/30) showed deficiencies, primarily in device verification (47%), importer information (30%), and storage/transport conditions (13%).
  • 22% of the 232 reviewed devices were non-compliant. While 26% of “MDD” legacy devices had deficiencies, only 17% of “MDR” devices were found non-compliant.
  • Swissmedic noted only minor improvements compared to 2023 and will continue ongoing inspections of importers to strengthen patient protection.

The new MIR form template v.7.3.1 will be mandatory from May 1st, 2026 in Switzerland, per Swissmedic’s webpage on incident reporting, as well as in the EU, according to the latest update in the EU Commission’s webpage (dated 22-Dec-2025).

 

swissdamed Business Rules v.3 was published. 

  • Adaptation of: UDI-1158, UDI-1112, UDI-1055

 

European Commission

 

The new version (v3) of EMDN Codes for 2026 will be available in EUDAMED with the deployment of Production v2.22.0, which is expected to take place by the end of January 2026.

30.12.2025

European Commission

 

A new MDCG 2025-10 on Post-Market Surveillance under EU MDR/IVDR has been published. It compiles the PMS requirements scattered in different sections of the Regulations. The following points are worth considering:

  • Art.5(5) devices (in-house devices) are out of scope of this guidance document but healthcare institutions are still expected to implement a system to review the experience gained from the use of such devices.
  • In addition to PMS requirements under the EU MDR, a PMCF Plan is expected for custom-made devices.
  • In a lenient interpretation of EU MDR/IVDR Annex III, the procedures required in a PMS Plan (e.g. Vigilance, complaint handling, communication with competent authorities) can be merely cross-referenced instead of described. 
  • The PMCF/PMPF Plan is an integral part of the PMS Plan, or, where applicable, the explanation why PMCF/PMPF activities are not required.
  • PMS data quality and integrity should be considered to ensure that the information is reliable. Data from different sources should be compared, and conflicting data identified and evaluated. Examples of data sources are presented in Table 2 of the document. 
  • Table 3 describes the interactions between the PMS processes and related processes, e.g. risk management, design and manufacturing, clinical/performance evaluation, CAPA, or usability, and Annex 2 provides an IVD and a non-IVD example on how to proceed.

 

Swissmedic

 

Swissmedic has published on its website clarification relative to the timelines for mandatory registration in swissdamed’s UDI module. 

Despite the postponement of EUDAMED’s UDI module, the deadline for registration of devices, systems, and procedure packs in swissdamed is maintained on 1 July 2026, with a transition period until 31 December 2026. This close deadline to EUDAMED’s will need careful consideration by manufacturers and Swiss Authorized Representatives to ensure that the necessary XML files are ready for uploading in swissdamed.
