Regulatory Changes in Medical Device Development

Webinars

This webinar will discuss recent changes in the regulatory requirements for medical devices, bringing together the key elements of regulatory strategy and testing limitations to provide an overview of what must be done in the development process, including any relevant time frames and associated costs.

Our speakers will begin with an overview of the current state of the medical device industry as it consolidates during a time when the market is expanding with unparalleled opportunities for the invention of new devices. These changes coincide with heightened requirements for safety assessment and portfolio submission for any new device; therefore it is important to understand both the changes and their effect on the industry as a whole.

As part of the discussion on how these recent changes in registration will affect the companies developing medical devices, we will also cover risk assessments, safety dossier preparation, and any laboratory testing necessary to determine the safety profile of the device. 

Finally, our speakers will summarise the testing strategies for medical devices which are tiered and well documented in both the United States and the EU dependent on the potential harm, dwell time, and invasiveness of the product in question. Also included will be an overview of the global regulatory differences and the importance of knowing and understanding the impact of these differences before determining any testing strategies.

It is crucially important to understand the changing requirements and testing strategies in order to develop new timelines rather than relying on past processes for your device development. Join us to understand in depth the recent changes and their impact on your medical device development portfolio.
