Event Description

Overview:

The FDA recalls related to software performance are on the increase for at least five years at the time of this writing. Software failures were behind 24 percent of all the medical device recalls in 2011, according to data from the FDA. Similar to hardware, software also has hazards (any source of harm) and hazardous situations which transform a hazard into harm. We must identify hazards and identify what event can turn them into harm and write software specifications to prevent such combinations. The risk management tools such as FMEA (Failure Mode and Effects Analysis), FTA (Fault Tree Analysis) can help to mitigate software risks. These tools are covered in the Chapter 4. The mitigations from using the tools become the new requirements in the software specification 

Why should you attend?

You have to do risk analysis using the tools in ISO 14971. It is one of the first things FDA will ask for! It is required by law (21 CFR Section 820) and appears on regulatory submission checklists. In addition, it will help define validation that should be done to prove the safety of your actual device use. You can also eliminate costs associated with recalls and lawsuits.

  • Overview of ISO 14971
  • Overview of IEC 63204
