ISO 14971:2012 - Does your current Risk Analysis still comply with your CE Mark requirements?

This webinar will benefit medical device companies planning to have a CE mark under the European Union Directive 93/42/EEC. We will discuss what is new in ISO 14971:2012 and help you avoid delays in obtaining or maintaining your CE mark for compliance to the Medical device Directive, EU Directive 93/42/EEC on Medical Devices.

Why Should You Attend:

If you have or plan to have a CE mark under European Union Directive 93/42/EEC on Medical Devices (MDD) you must be aware of what is new in ISO 14971:2012 or you could face delays in obtaining or maintaining your CE mark for compliance to the Medical device Directive, EU Directive 93/42/EEC on Medical Devices.

This presentation will provide information on how to review your current risk analysis to make sure you fully comply with the requirements for Risk Analysis under EU Directive 93/42/EEC on Medical Devices. The stricter interpretations will be expected during ISO 13485 audits and Technical File and Design Dossier document review. You cannot be comfortable that you can meet these requirements just because your current risk analysis meets ISO14971:2007, unless you are fully aware of the implications of ISO14971:2012.
