The Medical Devices Regulation (MDR) is a set of regulations for medical devices in the European Union (EU) to ensure safety, efficacy, and quality. Environmentally related requirements can also apply. Indeed, some strict obligations for device design and manufacturing mandate restricting, labeling, and tracking substances. The EU Database on Medical Devices (EUDAMED) and the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) are useful for this purpose.
