For Class IIa medical devices or Class I medical devices, the provisions of Article R. 5211-43 apply subject to the following modifications:
1° For class II a medical devices, the authorised body verifies the conformity of the devices with the technical documentation drawn up in application of the EC declaration of conformity procedure, and not with an EC type certificate, and with the essential requirements applicable to them. In the same way, the manufacturer certifies that the medical devices manufactured comply with this documentation and comply with the provisions of this Title and the Orders issued for its application which are applicable to them.
2° For Class I medical devices, the EC verification procedure only applies to medical devices placed on the market in a sterile state or with a measuring function and, depending on the case, only covers aspects relating to sterilisation or to the conformity of medical devices with the metrological requirements described in the technical documentation drawn up in application of the EC declaration of conformity procedure.
