What is EUDAMED?

The European Database on Medical Devices (EUDAMED) is a digital platform and database developed by the European Commission as part of implementing the MDR (Medical Device Regulation) and the IVDR (In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation).

It serves as a central information database covering the entire lifecycle of medical devices and IVDs placed on the EU market. Mandatory use of EUDAMED will begin following the official declaration that the modules are fully operational.

Which EUDAMED Modules Exist?

EUDAMED consists of a public website and six modules:

  • Actor Registration
  • Unique Device Identification (UDI) and Device Registration
  • Notified Bodies and Certificates
  • Clinical Investigations and Performance Studies
  • Vigilance and Post-Market Surveillance
  • Market Surveillance

The first four modules (Actor Registration, UDI/Device, Notified Bodies/Certificates, and Market Surveillance) are already available and mandatory to use. The remaining modules will be rolled out gradually. The European Commission provides the current rollout timeline for full EUDAMED functionality.
