Free Webinar – Safety is more than biocompatibility: MDR general requirements and ISO 10993 series

WHY I SHOULD JOIN THE WEBINAR:

“Safety” is mentioned almost 250 times in the MDR 2017/745 and our glorious “essential requirements” of MDD are now “general safety and performance requirements” meaning that safety is essential for a medical device to be put on the market in Europe.

Safety is a tripartite concept: our aim is the protection of the safety of patients or users or other persons.

ISO 10993 is mainly covering the safety of the patient and not everything is required by MDR is included in this series therefore further evaluations are required to be in compliance with regulatory requirements.

A comparison between GSPR dealing with biocompatibility and the relevant parts of ISO 10993 series will be presented pointing out the strengths and the weakness. The long way to have the ISO 10993 series harmonised will be presented as well.

TOPICS:
  • MDR and safety
  • How to be in compliance with MDR
  • ISO 10993 series: strengths and the weakness
  • Harmonised standards
  • How think out of the “ISO 10993 box”

  • R&D Managers
  • QA Managers
  • Regulatory Managers
  • Production Managers
  • Validation Managers
