The "FDA Approval Process for Medical Devices" conference has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

This seminar will provide a solid foundation in the approval and clearance processes for medical devices in the United States.

Participants will gain an understanding of the underlying legal and regulatory requirements and the general controls applicable to all devices, including device classification, establishment registration and device listing. With the underlying framework in mind, the approval and clearance processes for new and modified devices will be presented, including 510(k), IDE, PMA, HDE and De Novo applications.

Application contents, review processes, timelines, and key guidance documents will be discussed for each major type of submission. Participants will also learn about the pre-submission process, which FDA strongly recommends prior to the initial submission of novel devices to help ensure a successful submission process.

Finally, some hot topics will be presented. Depending on the interest of the participants, these may include new FDA requirements and policies involving Unique Device Identifier, regulation of device software, and how to distinguish device enhancements from being considered a recall.

Hot Topics

  • 21st Century cures legislation
  • MDUFA IV changes
  • Modifications to 510(k) Cleared Devices
