Overview
The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) and the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (Cenelec) are requested to:
- Revise existing standards to meet the MDR/IVDR:
- Annex I, Table 1 (medical devices), and
- Annex II, Table 1 (IVDs).
- Draft new standards to support the MDR/IVDR:
- Annex I, Table 2 (medical devices), and
- Annex II, Table 2 (IVDs).
The consolidated list reflects:

- Harmonised Standards not yet completed by the original proposed date of 27 May 2024 and therefore remain as pending action items
- New work items requested
The deadline to complete the new work items is 27 May 2028.
