Medical Device Regulatory Compliance Training - Live Webinars, Recordings & CDs

Not every parameter in the EO sterilization process in critical for the determination of the product’s sterility assurance level (SAL). This presentation will outline the various parameters and what actions should be taken when they are not compliant to the process specification. These actions can be as simple as a rationale for release to as complicated as the need for the qualification of a new sterilization process. How to decide the actions to take will be addressed along with the reasons behind the decisions so that an accurate and complete justification of your decision can be made for both management and regulatory agencies. The rationales for both conventional and parametric release will be addressed.

This webinar will detail a step-by-step procedure on how to write a practical, effective and compliant Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), review and revise SOPs and maintain compliance over the course of the SOP life-time.

This training will review the best practices establishing and conducting a cleaning validation for reusable medical devices. It will also address the requirements of ANSI/AAMI ST 98.

This technical writing training program will offer attendees an understanding of how the reporting process supports products in research, development, and in the marketplace. This virtual session will highlight the mandates for documentation set forth by the regulators, such as the FDA, the ISO, and other governing bodies. The program will train attendees on effectively reviewing and revising documents and assessing your audience, in effect producing effective written correspondence.

This webinar will teach attendees best practices for conducting effective quality audits to ensure regulatory compliance. Learn how to avoid potential pitfalls during the audit process.

This webinar explains what actions should be taken following an unexpected positive result in a sterility test on a biological indicator (BI) during performance qualification or routine testing. It also addresses the actions to take when a test of sterility demonstrates unexpected growth during validation or routine dose audits. The various items that should be investigated to determine the root cause and the follow up to the investigation will be covered.

This webinar discusses methods for estimating process capability for both normal and non-normal data. Methods include estimating the proportion of defective products that may be produced as well as the calculation and use of common process capability indices (e.g. Cpk and Ppk). Process Capability assessments are discussed in the overall context of quality improvement/management.

This webinar will focus on the critical steps in starting up a new cleanroom operation and releasing it for manufacturing. It includes a case study-based approach to dealing with excursion events and establishing control of the cleanroom after a worst case event.

Achieving high product reliability has become increasingly vital for manufacturers in order to meet customer expectations amid the threat of strong global competition. Poor reliability can doom a product and jeopardize the reputation of a brand or company. Inadequate reliability also presents financial risks from warranty, product recalls, and potential litigation. When developing new products, it is imperative that manufacturers develop reliability specifications and utilize methods to predict and verify that those reliability specifications will be met. This presents a difficult challenge in many industries with short product cycles and compressed product development time frames. This webinar provides an overview of quantitative methods for predicting product reliability from data gathered from physical testing or from field data.

In this webinar attendees will learn both the U.S. FDA and EU's MDD/MDR expect documented risk-based "master" and "individual" V&V planning. Various validation terms are explained with useable “working” definitions. The Validation Master Plan, and suggested field-tested individual V&V plans, Test Report / Protocol formats, and individual test cases, IQ, OQ, and PQs, are presented.

This webinar will discuss in detail the requirements of 21 CFR part 11 and updated European Annex 11 regulation including requirements for local, SaaS, and cloud hosting. It will also offer techniques to implement a computer system using risk-based validation to gain maximum productivity and reduce cost by as much as two thirds.

This 90-minute session on risk-based verification and validation planning will discuss "must have" elements from the U.S. FDA cGMP, EU MDR, ICH Q9 and ISO 14971 for hazard analysis and product risk management, and show how you can integrate these into a company's quality management system.

This 90-minute webinar will provide valuable assistance to all regulated companies performing and documenting meaningful, results driven 510(k) / change analysis activities, based on the FDA's new Draft Guidance, "510(k) Device Modifications: Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device", dated October 25, 2017.

This 90-minute webinar will show how you can implement a closed-loop CAPA system that meets CGMP requirements and U.S. FDA expectations. You will learn simple, but powerful, tools and methods that you can use regularly and systematically to define and resolve root causes, not just symptoms.

This project management training for FDA regulated companies will show how you can meet key FDA and EU MDD regulatory requirements for the project you manage. It will focus on proven tools and techniques for successful development and implementation of project management planning.

FDA regulates advertising and promotion material as labeling. The legal definition of labeling covers just about anything that explicitly or implicitly conveys a message intended to affect a person’s behavior and decision outcomes. How FDA applies its legal tenants of false and misleading information or variations on that theme requires continual updating by FDA and constant re-evaluation by industry. Now the regulatory landscape involves other federal agencies and academic principles in psychology. It has become very complicated and will prove very costly if you knowingly or unknowing walk into one of FDA’s legal snares. This webinar will bring attendees up to speed so you are clearer about what is a problem, what is not a problem and what becomes a risk laden judgment call.

This webinar will focus on the Key parts of IEC 62366-1:2015 and -2:2016, Human Factors Engineering and Role in Design Control (21 CFR 820.30)l, Design and Development Planning (ISO 13485 7.3) .

This CAPA investigation training will discuss techniques used by the FDA to review your CAPA system. You will learn what the FDA tells their inspectors to focus in the QSIT document and how your company can use the same QSIT document to prepare for inspection.

This webinar will teach you how to conduct an effective management review of the quality system which helps you understand how to plan and focus on right metrics and governed by an efficient process. Participants will also understand FDA policy regarding disclosure of management review information during inspections.

Attend this webinar to learn the QSR and ISO requirements for supplier evaluation, including defining the types of suppliers that require evaluation, including “critical” suppliers and outsourced processes. The QSR and ISO requirements for supplier assessment will be defined as well. The webinar will discuss the application of a risk-based process resulting in a customized supplier management system.
