.Learning Objectives
Upon completion of this course attendees will have a thorough knowledge of the requirements for developing and marketing Medical Devices across the European Union. The Directives are complex and the requirements differ somewhat by Member State. The content of this course is designed to simplify the understanding of all requirements and to provide attendees with the latest information regarding interpretation and enforcement of these regulations.
Key Topics to be Discussed:
In 2010 under CDRH, CDER and CBER divisions alone, FDA classified 1,097 Sponsor, Site and IRB Inspections. Of those Inspections 9% or ~ 66 of the Clinical Investigator Inspections, 6% or ~ 15 of the IRB Inspections and 12% or ~ 15 of the Sponsor/Monitor Inspections were categorized as "Official Action Indicated". 45% of Clinical Investigator, 50% of IRB and 38% of Sponsor/Monitor Inspections were categorized as "Voluntary Action Indicated" being required. Because FDA Inspections are part of doing business and getting products to market, Clinical Investigators, Sponsors and IRBs should not only be prepared to handle an FDA Inspection but also be prepared to follow-up on findings, following the inspection.
