Overview
This webinar will examine the requiements for the FDA's DHF and the current and new requirements of MDD/MDR's TF/DD/TD -- how to meet and document them. Their differing purposes / goals. Required and desirable contents. Areas requiring frequent re-evaluation / update. Similiarities and differences, and future convergences and trends. Typical DHF Table of Contents. Technical File/Design Dossier/Technical Documentation Table of Contents. The importance and usefulness of the "Essential Requirements"/"General Safety and Performance Requirements" . Structure of the "Declaration of Conformity"; N-B reviewed. Parallel approaches to development. The Device Master Record / Device History Record "tie in". Differing approaches to file inspections/audits by the U.S. FDA and a Notified Body.
Why should you attend?
Global companies must meet different product design documentation for the U.S. and the European Union / Common Market. The cGMPs mandate Design Control and the Design History File (DHF). ISO 13485:2016 has identical requirements under Design and Development. In order to sell globally, the EU's CE-marking documentation is a requirement -- the Technical FiIe/Design Dossier and now Technical Documentation. Currently they serve differnt purposes, support different goals, but the TF/DD/TD now addresses components of the DHF. And the DHF has borrowed some features required in the TF/DD/TD. Being aware of the similarities and differences can further concurrent development / documentation, and/or updates to both. And what are DMRs and DHRs relationship to DHFs, TF/DDs?
