FDA's Medical Device Software Regulation Strategy: 2-Day In-Person Seminar by Ex-FDA Official (Burlingame, CA, United States - February 16-17, 2017) - Research and Markets


Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "FDA's Medical Device Software Regulation Strategy: 2-Day In-Person Seminar by Ex-FDA Official" conference to their offering.

The growth of the medical software industry outpaces the design of FDA's regulatory process. In some instances clinicians have weighed the risk of software failure against the benefits of using a device at all. Device software is often used in conjunction with other software-based devices, but their interoperability was never anticipated.

- How can you anticipate and defend against the malicious remote hacking and shut down of an insulin infusion pump?

- Can one software program defeat the performance capability or back up safety features of another software program?

- When interoperability surface, which software manufacturer takes the lead to solve the problem and deal with proprietary software issues?

This seminar will focus on addressing these concerns and educating participants on FDA's recent medical device software regulation strategies.

This seminar will help those involved in overcoming these commercial and regulatory obstacles. It will highlight the need for firms to remain current with technological tools and strategy to remain competitive, and ideally, outside FDA's regulatory radar.
