  • Washington, DC-MD-VA-WV (1888PressRelease) December 05, 2012 - Of late, if the FDA has gone down in medical device companies' perception; it is mainly due to the fact that it has lately become more stringent than ever before in its regulatory demands. Most companies at the receiving end of FDA actions don't realize that all the results of FDA actions -recalls, high profile resignations and penalties are their own making. It is noticed that the most common fault line is Change Control. Lack of proper documentation of this very important aspect of regulation is the strongest reason for which FDA penalties get invited.

    This webinar will give participants a thorough understanding of how to document a proper Change Control process. This will help them to control and review device changes, which is a major requirement in determining when to file for a fresh 510 (k). Participants will learn to eliminate cGMP "entropy", which is sometimes the unintended consequence of what a Change Control process put in place to prevent.

    These are some of the usual challenges those in the regulatory profession encounter. This webinar will help participants overcome these. It will offer them ways to come up with well documented and reviewed Change Control that will meet FDA expectations.

    These are the areas covered in the session:
    o Change Control -what it is; what it is not
    o Areas impacted by Change Control
    o Regulatory/FDA 483 "Hot Buttons"
    o Design Control and Filing a New 510(k)
    o Document Control
    o Identifying Changes
    o Preventing Negative Changes and Entropy
    o Give the FDA It's Desired "State of Control"
    o Business Needs and Obtaining Stakeholder "Buy-In"

    When:December 5, 10:00 AM PDT | 01:00 PM EDT
