European Harmonized Standards

 

Harmonized standards are European Norms (EN).

The EU standards and the Medical Device Directive define the basic requirements concerning the safety of medical devices.

The General Requirements lays down basic principles of the safety and effectiveness of a medical device in a general way. The manufacturer shall determine suitable technical requirements of its medical device to demonstrate the conformity. The technical specification is carried out within harmonized standards. European Union provides a list of harmonized Standards for medical device manufacturer reference.

Harmonized standards are European Norms (EN) that are elaborated by the European standardization bodies (CEN, CENELEC, ETSI) under a mandate from the European Commission. The Commission specifies certain essential requirements within a given directive that have to be set out in greater detail.
