This webinar will present an overview of the regulation of in vitro diagnostic (IVD) devices in the United States, European Union and Canada. With a primary focus on IVD regulation by the US FDA, the webinar will cover the classification of IVD devices, an overview of data required for different submission types, and special topics. The webinar will also cover the changes in regulatory oversight in the European Union, and will briefly touch on the regulation of devices in Canada, including recent changes related to oversight of the quality system in that country.

Why Should You Attend:

Small companies typically are unable to hire the necessary regulatory and quality staff to adequately understand the regulations in the US, EU and Canada and to have productive interactions with regulators. Typically, these companies hire consultants to educate them on these regulations. For a small fee, the attendee of this webinar can obtain a broad overview of the IVD regulations in these three markets and bring back these concepts to their company.
