MEPs have voted to delay a requirement to re-register medical devices. An estimated 15,000 medical devices such as heart valves, breast implants and catheters needed to be recertified by next year. The European Parliament voted this lunchtime to give the medical industry more time to complete the paperwork. Those classed as ‘high risk’ devices will now have until the end of 2027. Fine Gael MEP, Deirdre Clune, says paediatric surgeon had warned there would have been just one suitable heart value left on the market. She says it is right that more time has been granted and she is adamant the extension does not undermine patient safety.
