GXP Medical Devices Training

The US FDA/CDRH is proposing to harmonize the current Quality System Regulation (QSR) for medical devices (21 CFR 820) by converging its requirements with requirements used by many other regulatory authorities. ISO 13485, into a new device Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR).

In this program, we will discuss the common statistics tools and techniques used in validation. Through real world examples and interactive exercises, we will demonstrate the basic concepts of statistics and how to apply them to your validation projects. Discussion will center around measures of variance, sample distributions, and expressions of variance. The session will conclude with a discussion of the concept of process capability and using process capability to set acceptance criteria for validation.

Design History File (DHF) Remediation using Principles of Lean Documents and Lean Configuration. Does your DHF remediation process resemble the very mess that it is trying to resolve?
The Design History File (DHF) is the objective evidence that a medical device was designed per design control guidance and applicable regulations and standards. While it is retrospective in nature, it is the end result of a process that begins with planning and ends with Design Transfer and has the Device Master Record (DMR) as a deliverable.

The ability of artificial intelligence / machine learning software to learn from real-world feedback and improve its performance is spurring innovation and leading to the development of novel medical devices. The FDA recognizes AI's advantages and dangers and has started to outline its expectations of industry and device design, programming, unique validation issues, documentation and submissions.

This course will educate you about various key elements of sterility assurance and contamination control such as Cleanroom Regulations, Classification, Sources, and types of particles, Design Requirements, Validation/Qualification, Operations, Environmental Monitoring Program requirements, Excursion investigations, Data Trending, Microbiological processes/methodology, Cleanroom cleaning/disinfection.

Both the U.S. FDA and EU's MDR expect documented risk-based device test method and design Verification and Validation under U.S. FDA cGMP, EU MRD and ISO 14971

The U.S FDA requires that 21 basic elements be addressed in the traditional 510(k) submission. This can serve as a model for other submissions.

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 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 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.

This training program will discuss the types of human error, the taxonomy of human error, human error reduction initiatives, individual performance, cognitive load and human error, cognitive load categories, and more.

This Process Validation Requirements webinar will review process validation basics, with emphasis on looking beyond compliance towards achieving a robust process. Review of process validation basics, with emphasis on looking beyond compliance towards achieving a robust process.

The FDA requires that manufacturers of pharmaceutical products have a documented process to assess its suppliers and contract manufacturers, that they have implemented that process, and that the process is effective. This training program will explore how having an effective supplier relationship management program will result in streamlining the supply chain, ensuring a more consistent level of quality components, materials and components, and be more cost effective to the manufacturer.

This training program will address the common human errors and deviations related to the use of procedures. It will also offer best practices for writing SOP’s to reduce the likelihood of human errors.

This webinar will discuss how root cause is an essential part of a corrective action system and will provide some examples of how to perform root cause analysis.

This webinar will familiarize participants with USP Chapter <1029> on good documentation guidelines. This session will wrap up the general concept and will provide information as to what needs to be documented in certain records.

This training program will provide regulatory requirements (US) of 21 CFR Section 820.50 (purchasing control) for the medical device industry and illustrate the same with examples. It will furnish details on what purchasing/supplier control management systems should address.

This webinar will provide an overview of the FDA expectations in medical device industries for setting up a quality system for FDA audit readiness. It will also provide an understanding of the quality system inspection techniques (QSIT) requirements for documents controls, production and process controls, packaging and labeling controls and more.

This training program will provide the regulatory requirements (US) for complaint handling in the medical device and pharmaceutical industries. The course will touch on complaint sources, and details will be furnished on the interrelationships regarding complaint handling/change control/adverse event reporting/and recalls. The course will also include timeline requirements associated to adverse event reporting, which reporting formats to use, when to recall and types of recalls.

This webinar will discuss in detail the methods of sterilization to be used on medical devices and pharmaceutical products including advantages and disadvantages of each method. Also attendees will understand the regulations pertaining to sterilization of products that will help to decide with method to use for their product. Validation of each sterilization method will be discussed and how best to prove to a regulatory body the products being treated are considered sterile.
