ABM Respiratory Care, a medical technology company focused on developing and globally commercializing novel integrated airway clearance and ventilation solutions, announced it has received CE marking for their BiWaze® Cough system in accordance with European Union’s Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745.
ABM RESPIRATORY CARE RECEIVES CE MARK CERTIFICATE FOR BIWAZE COUGH UNDER NEW MDR REGULATIONS
The EU MDR is the set of regulations that governs the worldwide production and European distribution of medical devices. Compliance with this regulation is mandatory by registering bodies for medical device companies to legally market and sell their products in the EEA (European Economic Area). As part of the new MDR regulations, all manufacturers of medical devices for sale within the EU must adhere to more strict guidelines to ensure their products are safe to use. We are proud to be one of the few companies in the Respiratory market to have met these stringent requirements.
