What they argued
Thank you for the opportunity to provide feedback during this portion of the targeted revision initiative. The list below summarizes the changes that, in our opinion, present the best opportunities for strengthening, streamlining, and future-proofing the EU MDR.

Surgical smoke contains biological compounds that are irritating and carcinogenic.
