The Association of Medical Device Reprocessors, AMDR, respectfully submits feedback with regard to Article 17, or the single-use device reprocessing provisions. Consistent with this call for evidences objectives, we strongly urge the Commission to recommend a simplification of Article 17.1 to reduce the needless and disproportionate burden placed on innovative, circular reprocessed or remanufactured devices.
