Abstract

This article has the form of a communication presenting recent legal changes in relation to medical devices. Until 26 May 2021, three medical directives were in force, namely Directive 98/79 / EC, Council Directive 93/42/ EEC and Council Directive 90/385 / EEC. They have been replaced by two regulations: Regulation (EU) 2017/745 on medical devices and Regulation (EU) 2017/746 on in vitro diagnostic medical devices. The article presents the reasons for introducing the changes and the new obligations that these changes bring for manufacturers of medical devices, in particular, products manufactured individually on a special order as necessary for the implementation of personalized therapies in clinical practice. There are also forecasts for the industry and end users of medical devices manufactured to order and used individually at medical centers.
