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

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 Sterilization training will provide valuable information to companies that design products for terminal sterilization with ethylene oxide.

This training program will offer attendees an understanding of human error, its factors and causes. The program will also identify the regulatory and business importance of human error prevention and define the process to manage human error deviations.

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 provides details regarding the generation of acceptance sampling plans often used in process validation and production control to ensure quality of final products. By attending this webinar, participants will be able understand the key inputs and issues involved in determining acceptance sampling plans. Sampling plans for attribute data are the primary focus although variable acceptance sampling plans are presented as well.

Mapping and evaluating all the steps in a pharmaceutical warehousing and distribution workflow can lead to valuable process improvements. In this webinar, we discuss how this review can be accomplished and the possible benefits that can result.

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 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 targeted 60-minute U.S. Reimbursement training/webinar will help you understand and navigate the complex U.S. system for understanding product reimbursement status and potential for your Medical Device

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 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.

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.

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.

The EU MDR is a comprehensive and complex regulation that combines all aspects of placing certain types of medical devices on the EU market into one regulation. It addresses the obligations of economic operators in this role, and provides for extensive databases, clinical requirements, classifications, conformity, and many defined relationships between agencies, member states, and other directives and regulations.

This webinar deconstructs the many parts of this regulation into the elements of lean documents and lean configuration, providing an opportunity to apply these principles as a way to create and maintain flexibility as this and new harmonized standards and regulations emerge.

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.

ISO 14971:2019 has introduced significant changes including benefit, reasonably foreseeable misuse and state of the art, as well as the management of risks associated with medical devices. It is important to be aware of these changes as technology continues to emerge.

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 discuss setting up statistically justified sampling plans for process validation. Discussion will also involve using the sampling plan to set acceptance criteria for process validation. Setting acceptance criteria for test method validation will also be presented.
