NEW YORK, NY, June 14, 2019– TransPerfect Medical Device Solutions, the world’s largest supplier of language services and content management technology to the medical device industry, today announced that Division President Marc Miller will address the MedTech Summitconference—the industry’s largest-ever MDR and IVDR event—in Brussels, June 17–21. The TransPerfect presentation “Using Automation to Meet Increased PMS and Other MDR Content Requirements” is scheduled for Wednesday, June 19, at 2:20 PM. For more information or to schedule an at-conference meeting, visit TransPerfect’s dedicated MDR and IVDR website.

MDR and IVDR Drive Process Automation

According to previously published research from TransPerfect and regulatory consulting agency Qserve,“the MDR and IVDR are expected to increase both the volume and velocity of device-related content while also increasing the amount of regulatory scrutiny applied.” This “rising tide of content” is causing concern in key areas of regulated operations, such as post-market vigilance and reporting, labeling, and clinical data requirements.

“In the face of increased regulatory requirements, manufacturers must automate to keep pace; manual processes and unstructured content are not really an option after MDR and IVDR,” observed Miller.

EnCompass the Solution

Fortunately for manufacturers, automation technology exists that can reduce the costs, risk, and turnaround of regulated content, including PMS, labeling, and clinical data. TransPerfect Medical Device Solutions offers an array of these technologies and services as standalone modules or integrated into its custom-engineered EnCompass solution for MDR and IVDR content. EnCompass is a modular solution that includes XML single-source content management, translation process automation (including advanced AI), and automated publishing.

In addition to content, translation, and publishing automation, TransPerfect clients have access to other specialized services and technologies to support effective MDR and IVDR compliance:

  • eTMF and clinical technology solutions
  • PMS and vigilance reporting solutions
  • E-learning development, localization, and testing
  • Software localization tools, testing, and consulting
  • Automated website localization solutions
  • Patent, litigation, and contract support
  • Multilingual digital media solutions

Miller concluded, “Between our in-depth industry experience and breadth of solutions, we are uniquely equipped to keep our clients MDR and IVDR compliant.”
