Key Outcomes:

• Conducted detailed research of the regulatory framework and premarket programmes, pinpointing challenges to the implementation of Early Feasibility Studies (EFS).
• Strategies are being developed to address these challenges, aiming to streamline the process for healthcare innovations.
• The website is evolving into a key resource for disseminating research findings and engaging the healthcare community.
• Communication enhancements are underway to build a network of stakeholders vital for the EFS implementation across the EU.
• Tools for monitoring the performance of the EFS programme are in the development phase.

The collaboration and expertise of our consortium members were on full display as we worked together to address the challenges and opportunities within the EFS ecosystem. We are excited to share that our collective efforts are paving the way for a more efficient and effective European Health System.

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to break new ground in healthcare research and patient care.
