Design Control and Review
Learn efficient design and development planning, the use of design review tools to facilitate decision making and documentation, and compliance with FDA-QSR and ISO 13485:2003. Well-organized Design History File documentation and change control do not slow down development, rather, these skills enhance productivity.
Risk Analysis and Risk Management
Integrate design-level hazard analysis into Design Planning, Verification and Validation. Use a risk matrix to best effect. Learn how to leverage ISO 14971:2006 and quality systems to optimize your CAPA program with management audits, trending, reporting, and risk mitigation.
Good Laboratory Practices
Apply Good Laboratory Practices to pivotal pre-clinical studies for medical devices, and understand when these requirements are not necessary. Learn protocol development, selecting the best lab for the task, how to monitor compliance to GLPs (for US and International compliance), and when to bring in your own auditor. Understand sponsor responsibilities.
