This webinar on Medical Device Reporting (MDR) will cover FDA requirements for importers, manufacturers and hospitals to report medical device adverse events. It will discuss current policies and guidances for Medical Device Reporting and provide update on upcoming regulations.
This 90-minute webinar will explain the current policies and guidances (1984-current, FDAMA and amendments), provide update on upcoming regulations and discuss what industry, hospitals and patients should know and how to conform to MDR rules. This course will explain the requirements for all these roles in the industry who need to conform with the regulations and the standard process. In addition, the course will describe the voluntary reporting mechanism and tools (MedWatch) for hospitals and consumers. Finally, we will explain further the FDA Event codes for MDRs and the Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience Database.
The presentation will also explore relevant MDR initiatives and standards in the U.S. and will present an overview of the global regulations and cases in the field. There is a recent report that FDA published on strengthening the medical device post-market surveillance and Unique Device Identification (UDI) plans that will affect the industry in the coming years. This report will be reviewed too.
