Introduction
The purpose of this guidance document is to clarify what products fall in scope of Regulation
2017/746 on in vitro diagnostic medical devices (IVDR)-also referred to as 'qualification'as
an in vitro diagnostic medical device(IVD)or an accessory to an IVD.In order to be qualified
as an IVD or an accessory to an IVD,the product must fulfil the definition in Art 2(2)or Art 2(4)
of the IVDR respectively.The qualification depends on the intended purpose as described by
the manufacturer.
The demarcation between the IVDR and Regulation (EU)2017/745 on medical devices(MDR)
is of particular importance because the MDR lays down in its article 1 that it shall not apply to
in vitro diagnostic medical devices (IVDs).
The present guidance document provides non-exhaustive lists of examples of IVDs and
accessories to IVDs.Further detailed examples may be found in the Manual on Borderline and
Classification in the Community Regulatory framework for medical devices.The reader could
also find it useful to consult MDCG 2019-11“Guidance on Qualification and Classification of
Software in Regulation (EU)2017/745-MDR and Regulation (EU)2017/746-IVDR”.Both
documents are published on the European Commission website¹.
The examples provided are indicative and the qualification of specific products should be
considered on a case-by-case basis by each manufacturer based on their intended purpose.
Thus,products detecting or measuring the same analyte could be qualified differently,
depending on the intended purposes as assigned by each manufacturer.
1.General principles of qualification
In deciding on whether a product falls within the scope of the IVDR,the primary considerations
are the provisions and definitions set out in Articles 1 and 2 of the IVDR.
1.1.Definitions of a medical device and an in vitro diagnostic medical device(IVD)
Article 2 (2)of the IVDR defines an IVD as:
"in vitro diagnostic medical device’means any medical device which is a reagent,reagent
product,calibrator,control material,kit,instrument,apparatus,piece of equipment,software
or system,whether used alone or in combination,intended by the manufacturer to be used in
vitro for the examination of specimens, including blood
and tissue donations,derived from the human body,solely or principally for the purpose of
providing information on one or more of the following:
(a)concerning a physiological or pathological process or state;
(b)concerning congenital physical or mental impairments;
(c)concerning the predisposition to a medical condition or a disease;
(d)to determine the safety and compatibility with potential recipients;
(e)to predict treatment response or reactions;
(f)to define or monitoring therapeutic measures.
