Why Should You Attend: In the recent past the US FDA has been criticized for its perceived failures in protecting the public from unsafe products. The widely publicized contaminated heparin use in medical products and drug failures such as Vioxxl have tarnished the image of FDA in its efforts to protect the public health. In response a new Commissioner was appointed with extensive experience in public health. She has rapidly changed FDA's response patterns to serious events. The new FDA is working rapidly to improve its image with the public and with Congress in response to its perceived shortcomings over the past 20 years. This presentation will discuss how industry should interface with FDA in regard to anticipated recalls. Additionally we will discuss the potential response to the public in the event of a recall. The primary focus should be on providing a safe product and in the event of a failure to provide correct and complete information to protect the public health. Areas Covered in the Seminar : Recent product recall failures. Analyzing product risks. CAPA prioritization. Communicating with FDA. Deciding on the response. Preparing the public information. Notifying the customers. Note: Use this Promo Code(102260) to avail Discount of 10% on LIVE Purchase.

How to Manage a Medical Device Recall Efficiently and Effectively Start: 08/27/2010 10:00 am End: 08/27/2010 11:00 am This webinar will provide valuable assistance and guidance to medical device firms that are either going through or preparing to go through a recall and want to understand the strategy and expectations of a recall and FDA's involvement. Description Attend this webinar to know the what happens in a recall and what are the strategies and operational procedures in a recall.Recall means the correction or removal of a device for human use where FDA finds that there is a reasonable probability that the device would cause serious, adverse health consequences or death. It is an action taken to address a problem with a medical device that violates FDA law. Recalls occur when a medical device is defective, when it could be a risk to health, or when it is both defective and a risk to health. A medical device recall does not always mean that you must stop using the product or return it to the company. A recall sometimes means that the medical device needs to be checked, adjusted, or fixed. If an implanted device (for example, a pacemaker or an artificial hip) is recalled, it does not always have to be removed. When an implanted device has the potential to fail unexpectedly, companies often tell doctors to contact their patients to discuss the risk of removing the device compared to the risk of leaving it in place. FDA classifies medical device recalls into three categories, representing the potential risk to public health: Class I, II, and III. Areas Covered in the seminar : Create and use a recall operational procedure and what should it contain. Understand what are effectiveness checks. What happens in a medical device recall. Learn why a recall is either a correction or a removal depending on where the action takes place. Understand why is required for the recall strategy as expected by FDA. Medical device recall authority and guidance. Depth of recall and using a viable, sustainable and effective strategy. Understand why the documentation and paper trail are so critical and termination of a recall. Note: Use this Promo Code(102526) to avail Discount of 10% on LIVE Purchase.	28
