View Full Version : MDR, MDVR, MPR - Definitions - ISO 13485 - Medical Devices

During the course of peforming a self-audit to ISO 13485 (don't ask) I ran across the following acronyms - MDR, MDVR, MPR. This was in the customer complaints section, I do believe.

From what I could find MDR = Medical Device Reporting?

I'm assuming these items have to do with reporting to an agency upon an injury due to the failure of a medical device?

Could somebody please enlighten me?

:thanks:

Here's the FDA webpage on MDR (http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/mdr/)

Could somebody please enlighten me?

That's about as far as I can go; I don't know what MDVR and MPR refer to.

Whoops, sorry if I left out the specifics. I am looking at ISO 13485, section 8.5.1 General.

This self-audit form I'm dealing with covers U.S. (where MDR shows up), Canada and Europe. Maybe the MDVR and MPR are reporting systems for the latter two.

MDR - Medical Device Report; for FDA in USA
MDVR - Medical Device Vigilance Report; for EU. See Meddev 2.12/1
MPR - No Idea!

Thanks for bringing us one step closer, Chris, and welcome to the Cove. :agree1:
MPR - No Idea!
Wouldn't that be "NI"? :lol:

It looks like the US and EU are covered. Would that leave the MPR as being a Canadian requirement? Any Canadian medical device Cove members out there?

Hi RCW,

This is the website of Health Canada. Use the "search" to get any info on MPR. Btw, this site is also very informative as fda website.
