Achieving MDR certification of an AI Photoplethysmography (PPG) device in time to support critical NHS priorities

“We were facing a long and uncertain wait to get a truly ground-breaking device to market. Scarlet’s focus as a Notified Body on AI & SaMD meant we could release it in time and start changing lives for the better.”

The Challenge
Feebris were facing a long, uncertain wait to get their pioneering AI medical device to market, delaying patient access and prohibiting health systems from adopting transformative technology that can alleviate capacity pressures
Customer Snapshot

•
Helps provide a safe and effective alternative to hospital admission
•
Seeking EU MDR certification for Class IIb AI medical device that ensures clinical reliability of cardiorespiratory information captured at home, with 98% accuracy across studies
The Scarlet Process
Scarlet combines clinical & AI experts and SaMD-friendly technical-file submission, which led to a highly efficient time to market for Feebris
Scarlet’s approach resulted in:
•
EU MDR certification for an AI medical device
•
The release of PlethAI to market in time to tackle critical NHS priorities such as winter pressures and the elective backlog
•

“Our certification journey with Scarlet was streamlined and efficient. They are really responsive, and the fact they’re AI specialised made for such a smooth and effective assessment process. That drastically increased the impact we were able to have with PlethAI.”
