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

In this webinar, learn how to implement the changes required by the new regulation EU MDR 745/2017 in your current quality management system in a simple and quick way. The information in this course is vital to your passing the Quality Management Audit by your certification company or notified body.

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 is intended to provide guidance regarding the FDA program to approve an NDA or an ANDA or PMA only if the methods used in, and the facilities and controls used for, the manufacture, processing, packing, and testing of the drug or Class III device are found adequate to ensure and preserve the drug's identity, strength, quality, and purity, or the device's safety and performance.

This course on Implementing Human Factors in Manufacturing provides a comprehensive overview of how to integrate human factors principles into manufacturing processes to reduce errors, improve safety and quality, and enhance operational efficiency. Participants will learn about the types and causes of human errors, ergonomic design principles, human-machine interface optimization, and effective strategies for fostering a culture of safety, quality, and continuous improvement. Through interactive workshops, case studies, and practical applications, attendees will gain the tools needed to conduct human factors assessments, design effective training programs, and develop actionable plans for sustainable improvement in their organizations.

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.

Both the U.S. FDA and EU's MDR expect documented risk-based IQ, OQ, an PQs of medical packaging lines under U.S. FDA cGMP, EU MRD, ICH Q7 and Q9 and ISO 14971

Both the U.S. FDA and EU's MDR expect documented calibration and risk-based V&V under U.S. FDA cGMPs, the EU MDR, ICH Q9 and ISO 14971

Compliance with European Medical Device Regulation 2017/745 (MDR) is mandatory for all medical devices placed in the market in any member state of the European Union. It is of strategic importance for any medical device manufacturer to understand and effectively apply the MDR requirements to access this critical market.

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 will discuss the main regulatory regimes for medical devices in US, Canada, Brazil, Japan and Australia, how they differ from EU CE mark regulations and how to address compliance though a Medical Device Single Audit Program (MDSAP) and ISO 13486:2016 approach

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.

Cybersecurity is the art of protecting networks, devices, and data from unauthorized access or criminal use. It is the practice of ensuring confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information, and is a rapidly growing problem for industry. 

The regulation and control of new or substantially changed medical devices for sale in the US is based on the 510(k), PMA or DeNovo submission process; 510(k)s now can only be submitted to the FDA under the eSTAR (electronic Submission Template And Resource) Portal. Other submissions will be phased in using new guidance templates as they become available.

This webinar is intended to provide guidance regarding the CGMPs on manufacturing methods utilizing the US FDA Production and Process Controls for Drugs and Devices and Statistical Process Controls (SPC) as taught by Drs. Demming and others and required also in the CGMPs and under control of variation process guidance.

Proper adherence and documentation of the FDA's Design Control requirements are key to any medical product project's success.

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.
