There were a lot of discussions about GDPR since its implementation in early 2018. But after a few years, some issues are happening and this may impact the Medical Device Industry.
The EU MDR 2017/745 articles 109 and 110 + EU IVDR 2017/746 articles 102 and 103 are talking about confidentiality and data protection. This means that medical device manufacturers should also follow GDPR.
Recently there was a judgment (SHREMS II) about data protection with Facebook. And even if Facebook's act is not specifically related to Medical Devices, this judgment is impacting Medical Device companies.
In this podcast, I have invited our preferred lawyer Erik Vollebregt to help us understand the technical aspect of this judgment and what should Medical Device manufacturers do to continue to stay compliant.
Erik also prepared for you all the documents related to this judgment and the AXON lawyer Newsletter so you have all the details on hand. Download them from the links below.
