SSCP for Medical Devices: Safety and Clinical Performance According to MDR

Clinical transparency, regulatory compliance, effective communication

The Summary of Safety and Clinical Performance (SSCP) is a regulatory document required by EU Regulation 2017/745 (MDR), mandatory for implantable and Class III devices. Validated by the Notified Body and published on Eudamed, the SSCP publicly shares—clearly and rigorously—the clinical information regarding the safety and performance of the device.

It is much more than a regulatory requirement: it is a communication tool that speaks directly to healthcare professionals and patients, helping build trust around the product.

In essence, it is the public face of your device’s clinical evidence: it summarizes all available data on safety and performance in a clear and accessible format.

Our service

Clariscience supports you in drafting the SSCP with a comprehensive, highly qualified, and customizable service:

  1. Analysis of technical and clinical documentation
    We review IFU, CER, PSUR, PMCF, and any relevant source to build a compliant and consistent SSCP.
  2. Drafting according to MDCG 2019-9
    We follow the structure and requirements of MDCG 2019-9, ensuring each section is compliant, clear, and aligned with the technical documentation. The document is written and reviewed by EMWA-certified medical writers with strong expertise in regulatory affairs, ensuring scientific rigor and full regulatory compliance.
  3. Patient section
    Where applicable, we draft the patient-facing version using clear, accessible language—avoiding unexplained technical terms, complex phrasing, and ambiguity.

Optional add-on services

We support you in evaluating the document’s readability using dedicated software, in line with MDCG 2019-9 recommendations.

We assist in managing feedback or observations from the Notified Body during the validation phase.

We can revise or draft CERs, PMCF plans/reports, and IFUs to ensure alignment and consistency across your documentation.
