This decision is in line with the regulatory frameworks outlined in the Medical Devices Ordinance (MedDO; SR 812.213) and the Ordinance on In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices (IvDO; SR 812.219), as well as the obligations and modalities associated with Articles 27, 29 and Annex VI of the EU-MDR and Articles 24, 26 and Annex VI of the EU-IVDR.
