Prerequisite:
This program is intended for individuals with a mid to high-level understanding of the European Directives concerning medical devices.
Synopsis:
In 2012 the adequacy of EU medical device controls was brought into question. The fraudulent activities of a medical device manufacturer, combined with overall concern over the age and adequacy of the Medical Device Directive have resulted in a renewed focus and proposed changes. The Medical Device Directive is under review to become a regulation. Notified Body methods and activities will change and therefore manufacturers will be impacted. The Year 2012 yielded:
• Many new or modified MEDDEV guidance documents
• Creation of the European Competent Authority’s Central Management Committee (CMC)
• Harmonization of key standards
• Proposed changes to the MDD and IVD Directives.
Please join us and our guest speakers for an informative and practical forum as we discuss the proposed and implemented changes and how these will impact you. Hear from industry speakers on effective ways to implement key guidance documents and standards.
Speakers:
John Bier, Operations Manager, Medical Devices NSAI
Kevin Corrigan, JD, Director of Regulatory Affairs, Advanced Sterilization Products
Mindy McCann, Vice President of Health Care, North America SGS
Christine Ruther, PE, President, C&R Engineering, Inc.
Helene Spencer, Consultant, ClinReg Consulting Services, Inc.
