Reporting adverse events for sponsors and manufacturers

This form is to be used by medical device manufacturers or their authorised representatives (sponsors) for mandatory reporting of adverse events associated with a medical device.

Initial, follow-up and final reports

All sponsors and manufacturers should complete the online forms available in the Medical Device Incident Reporting (MDIR) system for submitting initial, follow-up and final reports.

Medical Device Incident Reporting (MDIR) system

The MDIR system has been enhanced to enable sponsors and manufacturers to monitor and track device incident reports. 

Users are now able to electronically lodge initial, follow-up and final reports using the MDIR system. 

Sponsors and manufacturers can also view their previously submitted reports in the MDIR system.

The MDIR system can be accessed from the TGA website or the TGA eBusiness Services website. 

The information in the MDIR system is secure with users needing to log in to the MDIR system using their TGA eBS username and password.
