Notified Body 2962

Quality Medical Devices, Because Patient Safety Matters

Europe's regulatory framework puts patient safety first. QMD Services is the only Austrian Notified Body designated under both the In Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices Regulation (EU) 2017/746 (IVDR) and the Medical Device Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (MDR).

We believe medical innovation only delivers real value when it is matched with quality and safety, and we assess every device with that in mind.
