This book was released on 2020-09-24 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This short book is a starting point to introduce Design control, risk management and regulatory impact and application of Medical Device Directive MDR 2017/745 or to give its full name- Regulation (Eu) 2017/745 Of The European Parliament And Of The Council of 5 April 2017 on medical devices, amending Directive 2001/83/EC, Regulation (EC) No 178/2002 and Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 and repealing Council Directives 90/385/EEC and 93/42/EEC.The importance of design controls manifests itself in the potential impact of device quality and safety for the public or patient in need of medical devices or therapeutic devices. The benefits of well executed design controls support a device and product development lifecycle that ensures the intended use is met and verified during the product development process and beyond. Best practice and compliant application of design controls depends on input definition, appropriate review of inputs and a continuous verification and validation to provide outputs. Design Control regulations ensure that good quality management (QM) practices are used for the design of medical devices and products remain fit for purpose and appropriate to the intended use. Adding to the design control requirements for manufacturers is the science of risk management applied to devices and products across the lifecycle of each product.Risk needs to be a continuous consideration and is not just a static or once off activity. The approach to risk must be suitable for the device in question. A Risk plan should lay out the approach, requirements and techniques used to assess risk and complete risk analysis. Any risks that remain must have a clinical benefit and must be managed ensuring residual risks are as low as possible. Therefore, an integrated approach to design, risk management and manufacturing creates a template for safe and effective products. Recent regulatory requirements that will shape the future of medical device regulation have gained increasing importance. Such regulation is the Medical device regulation prescribed by the European Union, MDR 2017/745 and associated amendments. These requirements shape the manner of an organizations management of risk and the safety of users. Any risk assessments depend on the design features of a device, and how well they are implemented, verified and validated. Only a well-planned and well-maintained quality management system, cognizant of regulation, design management and risk management will achieve compliance and success.

Download or read book Medical Device Regulations written by Michael Cheng and published by World Health Organization. This book was released on 2003-09-16 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term 'medical devices' covers a wide range of equipment essential for patient care at every level of the health service, whether at the bedside, at a health clinic or in a large specialised hospital. Yet many countries lack access to high-quality devices, particularly in developing countries where health technology assessments are rare and there is a lack of regulatory controls to prevent the use of substandard devices. This publication provides a guidance framework for countries wishing to create or modify their own regulatory systems for medical devices, based on best practice experience in other countries. Issues highlighted include: the need for harmonised regulations; and the adoption, where appropriate, of device approvals of advanced regulatory systems to avoid an unnecessary drain on scarce resources. These approaches allow emphasis to be placed on locally-assessed needs, including vendor and device registration, training and surveillance and information exchange systems.

Download or read book Usability Engineering and Human Factors for Medical Devices written by Bernadette White and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-02 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A short introduction to Usability in paperback- the perfect pocket book- Recent changes in regulation (e.g. MDR 2017/745) have increased the focus on usability requirements for medical devices. With stronger references to risks associated with use error and foreseeable misuse now requiring manufacturers to respond to foreseeable misuse. This short book introduces Usability Engineering and Human Factors Engineering providing a grounding in the principles of UE/HFE and the deliverables expected by manufacturers. As medical device vary in classification, complexity, cost and intended use, it is not feasible to provide a ready-made solution for device usability. However, if usability is integrated into the product development processes and risk management processes it can achieve devices that have minimal use related hazards. If medical devices are designed and developed without applying a usability engineering or human factors engineering, their use can be non-intuitive, difficult to learn, difficult to complete tasks and difficult to use. Furthermore, as technology and medical devices offer more innovative solutions, patients can now be tasked with using medical devices or administering their treatments, therefore usability becomes more important. While the goal of design should aim to provide medical devices that are inherently safe, as with most medical devices, residual risks remain once a product is designed, manufactured and validated clinically. Use errors or Usability errors contribute to those potential risk scenarios where medical device usability is an issue for the user. With the increasing abundance of medical devices is the observation, treatment and monitoring of patients, use errors must be assessed for medical devices and reduced to an acceptable level. In contrast to safety inherited by design, the least and often the last protective measures are warnings or contraindications provided on labelling or instructions for use. The strength of applying usability engineering principles (aka human factors engineering) medical devices is that use errors can be identified and mitigated through design and engineering practices, early-on in the product development and product realization cycle. Medical devices designed and developed devoid of usability engineering, are less intuitive, difficult to use and require focus and attention to learn to use them effectively. In addition, usability is a growing requirement from a regulatory perspective. A strength of this short book is its focus on the themes of usability, risk management and design control which interact together and if managed early-on in projects can benefit the user and deliver medical devices optimised for usability and human factors. At approx. 73 pages, this book does not intend to provide an expensive textbook solution to Usability, alternatively, it is a concise guide offering a 'to-the-point' reference at great value.
Download or read book Medical Device Product Lifecycle written by Bernadette White and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2022-03-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended to provide an introduction to the application of a lifecycle approach to product design and development for medical devices. Medical Device Product Lifecycle management provides a framework to develop, design maintain user requirements and ensure the safety and performance of medical devices. Application of a Medical Device Product Lifecycle Management benefits the business aspects of manufacturing, fosters alignment across design and development teams and incorporates the voice of the customer, taking into account their needs and safety that is inherent in the design of products. The Medical Device Product Lifecycle (MDPL) relies upon several distinct quality management elements and processes in order to function effectively. These include; principles and establishment of a quality management system, regulatory processes, validation processes, engineering processes, change management and risk management processes. The MDPL process itself requires procedures and documentation to facilitate product realization. For the reader to gain the maximum benefit from this book, the following points should be considered. To begin with-Regulations are mandatory. Medical devices range in their application (intended use and indications), technologies, principles of operation, complexity and value. However, regulation in addition to standards need to be consulted and applied within organizations. The manufacturer has a legal responsibility in this regard and the classification and commercial strategy may require regulations such as FDA 21 CFR 820, (United States), and Medical Device Regulations EU MDR (2017/745) or Regulation 2017/746 on In-Vitro Diagnostic Devices (IVDR) (in Europe). Introduction Establishing a Medical Device Product Development Process is necessary to for medical device manufacturers to meet FDA regulations and regional regulations applicable to the products for sale. Beyond the legal stipulation, an additional purpose is to realize and deliver safe and effective medical devices that meet the intended use and user needs which provides medical solutions that enhance and preserve quality of life. To achieve safe and effective products, the guiding principles and techniques not only need to be applied in the design and development stages, but maintaining and monitoring the performance through the product lifecycle is required. It is easily to compartmentalize product performance and safety as a development and design-based activity, however, an effective medical device lifecycle process must ensure design safety and continuity until product retirement and discontinuation. The introduction of new medical device products or changes to existing medical device products necessitate design and development activities in order to plan and deliver the appropriate verifications and validations to demonstrate safety and performance of products. Device manufacturers in establishing and applying a Medical Device Product Lifecycle Process must continually ensure the process is fit-for-purpose and that is fulfils its legal and regulatory obligations (e.g. meeting the requirements of 21 CFR 820.30: Medical Devices - Quality System Regulation and ISO 13485: Medical Devices- Quality Management Systems etc.) A Medical Device Product Lifecycle process must be a comprehensive, end-to-end process that encompasses the entire life cycle of a product from project initiation through to product discontinuation and retirement of a marketed product. Making a comprehensive and detailed process intuitive and easy-to-apply should also play a role in designing and maintaining a MDPL process. Structuring the process into specific stages and the use of design review or gate reviews also provides for a format that has milestones and a stage by stage approach that makes it easier for engineers to work with.
Download or read book Medical Device Regulations Transitioning from MDD 93 42 EEC to MDR 2017 745 written by Shalinee Naidoo and published by Arcler Press. This book was released on 2020-11 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent times the need for improving regulatory controls and finding ways to improve the quality and access to safe medical devices has increased. The Medical Devices Directive 93/42/EEC was enforced to provide a harmonised regulatory environment for all medical devices sold within the European Union however new and emerging technologies as well as various well-known incidents within the medical device industry have challenged the current framework and highlighted gaps and a scarcity of skills and expertise. For this reason, there has been an increasing need to update the MDD which led to the development and release of the Medical Device Regulation (EU MDR 2017/745). This has since marked the start of a three-year transition period for manufacturers, suppliers, Notified Bodies, and National Competent Authorities. While compliance to the new regulation was set to take effect in May of 2020, it has now been postponed by a year due to the recent coronavirus pandemic. This has essentially given manufacturers more time to assess their overall readiness and reprioritize the time-consuming areas of the transition. This volume aims to provide an easy-to-understand guide for beginners to the medical device regulations in Europe and looks specifically at the changes between the current Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC and forthcoming Medical Devices Regulation (EU MDR 2017/745) with regards to classification, conformity assessments and assessing general safety and performance requirements.
