Common Pitfalls (from BPG Rev.4)

  • Basic UDI-DIs assigned incorrectly, causing amendments during assessment
  • UDI-DI inconsistent across application, DoC, TD, PSUR, and vigilance reports
  • Intended use and indications used interchangeably (use MDCG 2020-6 definitions)
  • IFU missing GSPR 23.4 requirements (compatible accessories, SSCP links)
  • Lack of 1:1 alignment across all labelling documents
  • Patient SSCP section is a copy of healthcare professional section (readability not considered)

Dependency

This is a Phase 1 deliverable. Must be finalized before clinical evaluation (CEP/CER) as labelling claims must be consistent with clinical evidence. IFU and labelling updates may be triggered by clinical evaluation findings in Phase 3.
