SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Manufacturing Face Masks and PPE - what you need to know
DESCRIPTION:SGS Webinar demystifies face mask and PPE Certification for manufacturers \nSGS’s webinar\, in association with Medilink Midlands\, will explain in simple terms the steps that manufacturers must take to place personal protective equipment (PPE) and face masks on the market. \nThe pandemic has led to exponential growth in PPE demand\, with the market now projected to reach $85.72 billion (£67.87 billion) by 2026 according to Fortune Business Insights – a compound annual growth rate of 7.3%. \nTo take advantage of this lucrative market\, many companies are pivoting to include PPE manufacturing in their products and services or expanding into new geographies\, such as overseas manufacturers entering the UK market. Lancashire Textiles\, for example\, has switched from producing duvets\, blankets\, and towels to manufacturing face masks. 3D Folkes has been supplying NHS workers with 3D printed face shields. \nHowever\, new entrants to the market are finding themselves caught in a maze of requirements to have products certified to sell in the UK as PPE. These processes can be easily misunderstood – especially among the confusion and noise that the pandemic has created. \nTo help manufacturers understand the different types of PPE\, and the testing and certification process\, SGS experts Kevin Foy and Kelvin Shepherd will cover everything you need to know about getting your products placed on the market. \nAt the end of this one-hour session\, attendees will have the opportunity to pose their questions. As part of a global network of PPE experts and accredited laboratories\, both Kevin and Kelvin are well placed to advise on how you can ensure the compliance of your face masks and PPE products. \nThis webinar will help you to understand the steps you need to take and the timeframes involved to get your goods to market. \nTo find out more and to book your free place\, please click here.

SUMMARY:Diagnosing the risk in diagnostics development; man versus machine
DESCRIPTION:Series of In-vivo devices\, Microfluidics and Diagnostics Webinars \nSeptember 2020 \nSEHTA and eg technology are delighted to announce a series of webinars on the topics of In-vivo devices\, Microfluidics and Diagnostics to enable you to continue to update your skillset and move your medical technologies and companies forward. \nEach session will run for 1 hour:  14:00 – 15:00 (UK time) \nThese webinars will be run via WEBEX – details on application \nThe design and development of Diagnostic devices within the medical industry is a complex process\, fraught with usability uncertainties. Many clinicians are reluctant to make a diagnosis without the confirmation of a device\, but devices cannot always be used in isolation as they do not have the full picture and patient knowledge of the clinician. This dichotomy makes the development of such devices often difficult. So\, how do we develop a diagnostics device which satisfies the product\, patient\, and clinician requirement specifications? Furthermore\, how can we develop a diagnostics strategy that addresses the codependence of diagnostic devices and their user? \nThis webinar will focus on what it takes to produce a diagnostics device which not only meets requirements but lives up to its marketing. Looking at the user and usability requirements\, how your device should be classified and the importance of creating a defined strategy\, we will discuss the human factors involved with diagnostics design and how total reliance on the device is not always the best option.  \nTopics to be covered include: \n\nThe key considerations in a diagnostics device development programme\nThe importance of identifying your product strategy early in your programme\nHow to keep usability and the end-user in mind throughout\nNavigating the regulatory process\nClosing the design loop – ensuring your end product does what you say it does!\n\nTarget audience for these webinars are: Medical Technology Entrepreneurs\, Medical Device Software Developers\, Technology Transfer Officers\, Medical Technology University Researchers\, IVD Developers\, Business Owners\, Executives\, Product Owners\, Regulatory Specialists within a company that need to understand the overall regulatory requirements for their medical devices to enable them to place a device on the market and to maintain access.

SUMMARY:EU MDR Clinical Strategy & Evidence Requirements for CE Marking Workshop - 16 Oct\, London
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 16th October 2019 \nHill Dickinson\, Broadgate Tower\, 20 Primrose Street\, London EC2A 2EW\, 10:30 – 16:00 \nSEHTA members fee – £250 + VAT per delegate  \nSEHTA non-members fee – £300 + VAT per delegate \nWhy attend \nClinical strategy\, evidence and evaluation are central to product approval and market access. \nThrough clinical data a company is able to ensure: \n  \n\nthat their medical device is able to obtain CE Marking and other regulatory approvals;\nthat the device performs clinically in both a safe and effective manner per the intended use and in the indicated patient population; and\nthat they are able to place it on the market supported by sufficient clinical evidence for user adoption and reimbursement.\n\n  \nIt is a requirement of the new EU Medical Device Regulation that a medical device company have a regulatory strategy and of the MDR and MEDDEV 2.7/1 rev 4 that the company have a clinical evaluation strategy. \nIn order to effectively market their device and generate sales\, organisations need to have considered well in advance the clinical elements for market access as failure to do so may put them back months\, through not understanding and obtaining appropriate data when initially gathering clinical evidence. \nNotified Bodies and regulatory authorities are placing greater emphasis on clinical evidence. Competent Authorities & regulators in other countries are also looking at clinical data and expecting up to date evidence. In addition\, purchasers of devices are increasing their requirements for clinical evidence that demonstrates good clinical outcomes and value (evidence-based medicine). The need for clinical evidence and evaluation is a core theme and needs to be captured to satisfy regulators\, notified bodies\, patients\, physicians\, procurement\, reimbursement agencies (e.g. NICE)\, etc. \nCompanies need to be prepared and have solutions in place to address this and their ongoing clinical requirements. Getting your clinical strategy wrong will delay approval and also market access. \nPlease note this is for Medical Device firms only – not Pharma or IVD \n  \nThis one-day workshop will give you: \n  \n\nAn overview of the new EU Medical Device CE Marking Process\nHelp you to maintain Access to the Market\nUnderstand the key areas of compliance required\nUnderstand the technical documentation that should be in place for each device\nGain a plan of action for implementation and CE Marking under the new legislation\n\n  \nTarget Market: C suite\, executives\, product owners\, medical officers\, regulatory and clinical specialists within a company that need to understand the overall clinical requirements for their medical devices to enable them to place a device on the market and to maintain access. All company sizes will find it useful. \nTo view an agenda for this event\, click here \nTo register for this event\, click here

SUMMARY:Monitoring and supporting Patients across all healthcare settings
DESCRIPTION:MediWales is collaborating with the West of England Academic Health Science Network (AHSN) to deliver this conference which will focus on monitoring and supporting patients outside the hospital setting (at home\, in nursing and care homes) to specifically enable the measurement of vital signs to calculate a Nation Early Warning Score (NEWS) which is used when delivering care. \nFree delegate places are available to NHS professionals\, research and industry communities\, from both sides of the bridge. We would also like to extend an invitation to companies who have or are developing various approaches to track vital signs. Though this is not about intensive care monitoring – during the event it will be considered how these tools could be used in a community setting. This would include the recording of observations\, dashboards\, wearable devices\, remote monitoring\, devices that aid recording of observation or identifying deterioration with a particular interest in wearable and non-contact tech for those with Learning Disabilities. \nThis event will discuss the challenges and technical issues faced in the community care setting and look at the development of potential clinical / industry collaborations to address the issues in this area. There will also be information on the support and funding available to take projects forward. \nHear from speakers from the AHSN who will present their work on the National Early Warning Score (NEWS) and from Welsh clinical colleagues who will showcase their plan going forward. An insightful look at where automation of technologies and clinical pathways could be accessible to improve an ever evolving process. \nFor further information and to book your place\, please click here.
