SUMMARY:Medical Device Clinical Strategy & Requirements Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Clinical strategy\, evidence and evaluation are central to product approval and market access. It’s a requirement of the new EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR: article 61) 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 generate sales\, organisations need to have thought through the clinical elements for market access as this will put them back months\, if not years\, if not understood and completed when initially gathering clinical evidence. \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 access. \nLearning Outcomes \n• Understand the clinical strategy and how that fits within an overall company strategy\n• Understand the role of clinical investigations\, evaluations\, evidence and post market clinical follow ups\n• Understand how clinical evidence and the role of clinical strategy enables market access\n• Interact with fellow practitioners and presenters during the Q&A \nDelegate Fees \nSEHTA members: £125 + VAT \nNon-members: £175 + VAT \nTo find out more information or register your place\, please click here.

SUMMARY:MPD Training Course: MDD2MDR
DESCRIPTION:This one-day course is designed for those who need to better understand the Medical Device Directive (MDD) and want to learn what is important to understand for compliance in the Medical Device Regulation (MDR). Comprehensive notes in the form of slides are used in the training\, but it is the experience\, insights\, examples and methods used by the well-known trainer\, that makes it important to be present as a delegate. \nMeet the Trainer \nTrevor Lewis has a unique\, truly engaging approach that previous delegates have found very effective and especially memorable. He has decades of relevant experiences to draw from; in industry\, as a consultant and as a trainer of regulators around the world on behalf of the European Commission. \nDelegate numbers are deliberately limited\, so the training can be sensitive to individual experience\, ability and needs. Delegates should ideally provide us with a training needs analysis to ensure optimal training and use of time. Where requested\, white papers\, briefings\, guidelines and some training materials can be provided to ensure those new to the industry or with less experience can gain the maximum possible insights in just one day of this intensive course. \nThe course will cover: \n• What is and what is not a medical device\n• Who is involved\n• Insights into guidance and standards\n• What is CE marking and why the ‘Blue Guide’ matters\n• An introduction to the MDR\, key considerations and timelines\n• Understanding the role of economic operators\n• How to classify your device under both the MDD and MDR\n• How to choose a regulatory route to market and why a quality system approach is important\n• What is required in technical documentation\n• Labelling insights\n• Brief but vitally important comments on clinical evaluation**\n• MDD2MDR planning considerations \nTrevor Lewis\, Director of the Medical Device Consultancy always works with individuals on points of a general nature as much as possible on the day\, during breaks\, at lunch and immediately afterwards. Those companies or groups requiring a more bespoke training with more practical exercises involved can approach him directly. \nIf a delegate wants to discuss a specific issue of a confidential nature with Trevor\, we recommend this be made clear prior to the event. An appropriate time and place can then be planned for this item to be discussed\, usually this should be outside the training day. \n**please note comments on clinical evaluation have to be limited and is strongly recommended that delegates wanting in-depth training on this register for other more specific Medilink West Midlands courses. \nFor more information or to register your place\, please click here. \n  \n
