CHMP opinions on consultation procedures
The European Medicines Agency (EMA) publishes a consultation procedure public assessment report (CPAR) on the opinions prepared by its Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) following a consultation procedure with EMA on the quality, safety, benefits and risks of ancillary substances incorporated in a medical device.
EMA publishes the CPAR after the notified body confirms the granting of a Conformité Européenne (CE) mark for the device.
The Agency also publishes information on procedural steps taken after a consultation procedure.
For more information on the consultation procedure, see Ancillary medicinal substances in medical devices.
