What is a vascular medical device?

A vascular medical device can be defined as a device that is used during open surgery techniques, as well as endovascular techniques to treat control, diagnose, monitor, or correct disease or injury. It encompasses the cardiovascular, peripheral vascular, and neurovascular anatomy. 

Meet our experienced Vascular team

The Vascular team specializes in implant, endovascular prothesis stents intended to be used in the arteries and veins for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, prediction, prognosis, treatment or alleviation of disease or injury, or in the investigation, replacement or modification of the anatomy in relation to the vasculature or the heart. 

We collaborate with our in-house clinicians and technical teams specialized in endovascular surgery and clinical investigation.  

ECLEVAR MEDTECH can support the manufacturer throughout the device life cycle. From premarket to post-market clinical follow-up activity under the EU MDR and UKCA services under the UK MDR for vascular medical device.

Vascular Data Safety and Monitoring Boards (DSMBs)

ECLEVAR MEDTECH will provide the following DSMB services:  

DSMB Setup Activities: 

  • Charter Development 
  • Adjudication Form Development 
  • Member Selection 
  • Contract Development & Negotiation

Per Meeting Activities: 

  • Clinical Document Retrieval 
  • Patient Dossier Development 
  • Identification of Adjudicable Events 
  • Planning & Coordination of DSMB Meetings 
  • Participation in DSMB Meetings 
  • Post-Meeting Review & Meeting Minutes 
  • Communicate DSMB Results to Sites 

Data Safety and Monitoring Boards (DSMBs), also called Data Monitoring Committees (DMCs), were introduced in first time in 1960s to ensure the safety of patient in clinical investigation. The main difference between DSMBs and other clinical oversight bodies is that a DSMB undertakes periodic risk-benefit evaluation during the medical device clinical investigation using the clinical data gathered during the study to oversight the emergence of serious or unexpected adverse outcomes.  

The DSMB shall request stopping a trial for evidence of harm.  For less serious adverse events, the DSMB may serve as a conduit for relevant information to the medical device sponsor that can trigger protocol amendments, changes in surveillance or further training of study investigators. 

Clinical Events Committee (CEC) Services

ECLEVAR MEDTECH prepares for, participates in, and works with the data management team to identify events requiring adjudication for each Clinical Events Committee (CEC) meeting. Specifically, ECLEVAR MEDTECH will provide the following CEC services:

RWE solutions matching notified bodies expectations

Our approach allowed our clients to obtain the CE certificate under MDR.

Vascular medical device can be defined as a device that is used during open surgery techniques. It encompasses the cardiovascular, neurovascular.

Each step is handled by our team of experts (Biostatisticians, Data Analysts, Clinical Research Assistants, Clinical Project Managers) who rely on best clinical practices such as ISO14155:2020, advanced analysis techniques and a strong Quality Management System. 

A STRUCTURED Healthcare ECOSYSTEM designed for the medical device and IVD under EU MDR and UKCA regulation

Vascular medical device can be defined as a device that is used during open surgery techniques. It encompasses the cardiovascular, neurovascular.

With ECLEVAR MEDTECH, a feasibility study is conducted before engaging in RWE clinical study to ensure the quality and quantity of data. It is important to demonstrate that the data source is of sufficient quality and quantity for the intended use. The advantages of using RWD as a valid PMCF activity are of no relevance if the data source is of poor quality, as reliable decisions cannot be made based upon an unreliable data source. 

Case Studies:

The medical device:

vascular prostheses made of knitted polyester fabrics, in straight tubular shapes, impregnated with ultra-purified collagen of bovine origin, and are indicated for replacement or bypass of arteries damaged by an aneurysm or arterial occlusive disease.
 

Problem:

As shown by the Clinical Evaluation Report, intended claims on clinical safety and performance are not sufficiently supported by existing clinical evidence. To maintain a “
Vascular patch “in the European market, the sponsor has to conduct a PMCF study to generate sufficient clinical data in accordance with “Chapter VI – Clinical Evaluation and Clinical Investigations, specifically sections 62 – 82”. As well as ISO 14155:2020.  

Objectives 

  • Confirming safety and performance of the Vascular device throughout its expected lifetime and both anatomic locations: Carotid and femoral. 
  • Identifying and analysing emergent risks based on factual evidence. 
  • Ensuring the continued acceptability of the benefit-risk ratio referred to in EU MDR. 
  • Identifying possible systematic misuse or off-label use of device X to verify that the intended purpose is correct. 
Vascular medical device can be defined as a device that is used during open surgery techniques. It encompasses the cardiovascular, neurovascular.

Methodology  

A Sponsor conducted RWE multicentre study to collect clinical data for Vascular patch. The objective was to examine short and long-term outcomes of using the device when exposed to a larger and more varied population. 

All data were retrieved from medical charts for each patient from the time of surgery (considered as the baseline of study) until a maximum of 3 years after surgery. 

A minimum of 250 up to a maximum of 300 subjects were evaluated from 3 to 8 different sites. At least 100 subjects were evaluated in carotid location and at least 100 in femoral location.

  • Representative population 
  • Accepted by the notified body. 

Applicable regulation and guideline: 

  • Article 61, Annex I and Annex XIV of the Regulation (EU) 2017/745 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 April 2017 on medical devices (MDR), 
  • ISO 14155:2020-07 (section 6.3, Justification for the design of the clinical investigation) Clinical investigation of medical devices for human subjects — Good clinical practice. 
  • Regulation EU 722/2012: Regulation (EU) concerning particular requirements regarding the requirements laid down in Council Directives 90/385/EEC and 93/42/EEC concerning active implantable medical devices and medical devices manufactured utilizing tissues of animal origin. 
  • NF EN ISO 7198: 2017- Cardiovascular implants and extracorporeal systems. Vascular prostheses. Tubular vascular grafts and vascular patches.
