Event Description

This webinar will provide valuable guidance to regulated companies in development and implementation of formal, defined, documented methods for analysis of product changes and when to file a new 510(k).
Consideration of the U.S . FDA's current K-97-1 Memo / guidance document on "510(k) Device Modifications"

Control of medical device changes and a current 510(k) are big issues in recent FDA studies. Companies are held fully responsible for deciding when a new 510(k) filing is warranted. Often this is a difficult decision process. Effective change control and the power of current risk management tools must be a major part of such an analysis. The U.S. FDA has its current K-97-1 Memorandum (they recently pulled their proposed new draft Guidance Document, "510(k) Device Modifications: Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device"). K97-1 provides a tool to assist in device and new 510(k) / change analysis. The addition of such simple tools will assist companies in implementing formal, documented, repeatable methods with defensible rationale for their decisions on when changes trigger the need for a new 510(k) submission.

The K97-1 analysis is the preferable tool to work with a company's change control system to document the need to file, or the rationale for not submitting a 510(k). It is recommended as the preferred method for documentation of each change in a device during its lifecycle.  Provides for a Step-by-step analysis: Manufacturing, Labeling, Tech / Performance, and/or Materials Changes. Consideration of which of the three major 510(k) formats should be used: Traditional, Special or Abbreviated.
