FAQ

Why an e-learning?

Many medical device manufacturers, especially those with an international presence, have non-German speaking employees who inform or instruct German Healthcare professionals.

In order for the manufacturer to comply with the legal obligation to provide regular training, the Forum Institut offers an English-language e-learning course for medical device advisors to teach the following content:

  • European regulations and the German medical device law
  • What a medical device is and how it is placed on the market
  • Requirements and tasks of medical device advisors
  • Vigilance and market surveillance (monitoring and reporting system)

What is a "Medizinprodukteberater" = medical device advisor? A German and Austrian legal Specialty

In Germany, according to § 83 MPDG (Medizinprodukterecht-Durchführungsgesetz), or in Austria, according to § 48. MPG (Medizinproduktegesetz) a medical device advisor is someone who professionally informs specialist circles or instructs them in the proper handling of medical devices.

He/she may only carry out this activity if he/she has the necessary expertise and experience for the respective medical devices to inform and, if necessary, instruct in the handling of the respective medical devices. This also applies to information given by telephone (Germany).

Who is allowed to work as a Medical Device Advisor?

Anyone who
1. has successfully completed education in a scientific, medical, technical or IT-commercial profession and has been trained in relation to the respective medical devices or
2. has acquired experience in providing information on the medical devices in question and, where necessary, in instructing them in their use, by working for at least one year, which may be shorter in justified cases.

What means "proven expertise"?

The medical devices advisor must prove his expertise to the competent authority upon request. He shall keep up to date with the latest state of knowledge about the respective medical devices in order to be able to give expert advice. The client must ensure that the medical product adviser receives regular training.

What is the main task of a medical device advisor?

The medical devices advisor must record any reports from members of the specialist circles about side effects, mutual influences, malfunctions, technical defects, counter-indications or other risks associated with medical devices and immediately transmit these in writing or electronically to the manufacturer, his authorised representative or their person responsible for compliance with the regulatory provisions. If medical devices are placed on the market under the responsibility of the importer, the information pursuant to § 83 MPDG sentence 1 must be transmitted to the importer in writing or electronically.
