Description: | Key Take Away: This webinar will teach you how to use a series of flowcharts to evaluate whether or not a change to a medical device or to software requires a new draft guidance 510(k) submission, based on the type of medical device changes, and the impact on the safety and effectiveness of the device as used by a person. Overview: This webinar is intended to provide an overview of 2 new FDA draft guidance documents that clarify when medical device and software manufacturers must file a 510(k) submission requirement (premarket notification) for changes to an existing device and/or software integrated with a device. The first guidance document clarifies key terms and provides insight as to how a risk assessment can help medical device manufacturers to evaluate whether a new 510(k) is required. Examples of device changes and recommendations for documenting a company’s decisions are provided. The critical decision is whether a proposed change to a legally marketed medical device subject to premarket notification requirements is significant enough to require FDA review. This includes any major change or modification to the intended use of the device that could have an impact on patient safety and effectiveness. FDA provides a series of flowcharts and questions that can serve to guide medical device manufacturers to come to a conclusion as to whether a new 501(k) is necessary. The flowcharts address changes to: FDA Labeling The first step recommended by FDA is to conduct a risk assessment of the change, including all potential new risks along with known risks for the device. Again, the FDA provides a flowchart to guide software manufacturers through the process of determining whether a 510(k) Device Modifications must be prepared. FDA also provides examples of changes to software, along with an analysis as to why a new 510(k) premarket notification would or would not be needed. The FDA notes that while neither of these drafts specifically includes combination products, the general concepts may be helpful in determining whether changes to device constituent parts of combination products need a 510(k). The guidance documents also do not address 510(k) submission requirements for remanufacturers of existing devices, such as re-processors of single-use devices. Why Should You Attend: You should attend this webinar if you have any role in evaluating changes to medical devices, including those to labelling, technology/engineering/performance, and materials. You will learn what factors should prompt additional testing, and the type of documentation to prepare for FDA Medical Device & Software Guidance, whether a new 510(k) is required or not. Areas Covered In This Webinar: Medical Device changes Learning Objectives: Know the key aspects of the two FDA draft guidance documents Who Will Benefit: Manufacturing Managers and Analysts Speakers Profile: Carolyn Troiano During her career, Carolyn worked directly, or on a consulting basis, for many of the larger pharmaceutical companies in the US and Europe. She developed validation programs and strategies back in the mid-1980s, when the first FDA guidebook was published on the subject, and collaborated with FDA and other industry representatives on 21 CFR Part 11, the FDA’s electronic record/electronic signature regulation.
