Post-Market Clinical Follow-up

Does your device already have CE approval?
We help you collect targeted clinical data about your medical device by means of proactive Post-Market Clinical Follow-up measures!

CERES supports customers to plan and conduct Post-Market Clinical Follow-up for medical devices efficently.


Post-Market Clinical Follow-up (PMCF) is an essential part of Post Market Surveillance (PMS). According to MDR the manufacturer has to keep the clinical evaluations of the devices up-to-date. To fulfil manufacturers responsibility there are several opportunities to collect clinical data continuously:

  • Post-Market Clinical Follow-up study
  • Device Registry
  • PMCF Survey
  • Real-World Evidence
  • Literature research
  • Use of AE and complaint databases

Together, we determine appropriate PMCF measures according to relevant guidelines, e.g. MDCG 2020-7, as well as your individual needs.
