About the Training Course
This is not just the usual Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) and Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) class. Those topics are covered to be sure, but this class prescribes an approach that integrates the Risk Management process into New Product Development to save time and money by getting the product designed right the first time, starting with product architecture.
Conformity with ISO 14971:2007(E) and Title 21 CFR is clearly emphasized, but rather than just exposing what the regulations say, a simple way to conform with the least “side effort” is offered. A way is shown to automatically get congruence between complaint management, Medical Device Reporting, and new product launch. Comments about criteria for Field Corrective Action are made.
Class exercises (using actual products in closed classes) and class discussion make each session unique. |
