REQUIREMENTS OF THE MDD 93/42/EEC
The MDD calls for the comprehensive docu-
mentation of the whereabouts of medical pro-
ducts that are applied in human beings, es-
pecially the whereabouts of implants. For this
reason, the individual identification numbers
of any implanted valves are to be noted in pa-
tients' records, so that in the event of any in-
quiries, the implant can be traced without any
difficulties. Each valve is outfitted with a sticker
for this purpose.
