EUDAMED Database Update App-Version 2.7.0

EUDAMED Database Update App-Version 2.7.0

On April 4th, the EUDAMED was updated.

With this release, some known errors have been corrected, which were reported by Europe IT Consulting GmbH, among others.

But the main innovation is the new separate data upload service for “Market Information”

MDR-Eudamed Market Information- Upload

Unfortunately, this doesn’t make it easier for Medtech companies. Instead of using the previous services with creating, changing or adding the UDI data, the market information must now be used additionally for all changes in that data area and has to be uploaded using a separate service and thus via a specially defined XML file structure.

Even before that, you thought that it couldn’t get any more complicated than that. But the European Commission doesn’t disappoint you. True to the motto “It can be always more complicated”.

The same can be expected for other parts of the UDI data. We expect that the areas “Packaging”, “Clinical Size Types”, “Certificates” and some other tabular areas will soon have to be served via additional services.

The UDI world was so easy when there was only the GUDID database 😉
