Performance evaluation is a requirement in the In vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices Regulation 2017/746 (IVDR).
It refers to an assessment and analysis of data to establish or verify the scientific validity, the analytical and, where applicable, the clinical performance of a device.
To legally market an in vitro diagnostic medical device in the EU, manufacturers must comply with the requirements outlined in the IVD Regulation. This includes providing clinical evidence that supports the intended use of the device, which should be based on an ongoing process of performance evaluation.
Performance evaluation shall demonstrate the scientific validity, analytical performance and clinical performance of the device and it shall follow a performance evaluation plan. The clinical evidence derived from the performance evaluation shall provide scientifically valid assurance that the relevant safety and performance requirements of the IVD Regulation are fulfilled.
