To prove that you meet all MDR requirements regarding usability, you need a complete Usability Engineering File. Under certain circumstances, your product could use the abbreviated UOUP process of IEC 62366-1 for this purpose. If your product does not qualify for this, there is the possibility to argue on the basis of the Post Market Surveillance data of your (or a similar) medical device and to prove with an appropriate rationale that your product does not pose any unacceptable risks by its use. However, the latter may lead to unwanted discussions. A summative usability evaluation is often the safer way to go.
