Event Description

Overview: Biocompatibility testing is an essential and critical component of any US marketing application for a medical device that has direct or indirect contact with humans. This webinar will cover the FDA's existing and recently updated draft guidance on the use of ISO-10993 to determine what testing is necessary, and describe in detail general and specific testing considerations, based on the nature and duration of contact of the medical device with humans. It will also cover when animal safety studies may be used to justify omission of certain biocompatibility tests, as well as the desired content of a biocompatibility test report.
