SPEAKER: Luis Jimenez

The rapidly changing technologies and access to software through connected platforms have blurred the lines between consumer and medical products. This has historically resulted in some challenges for healthcare regulators and industry to recognize software as medical devices (SaMDs) and applicable regulatory requirements. The COVID-19 pandemic has also affected these products in more than one way including: demand, regulatory deadlines and overall impact to healthcare.

 

During this presentation we will cover:

- Impact that Covid-19 is having to these types of devices and possible Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) pathways

- Specific regulatory challenges that the non-physical nature of software raises

- Review of the definition and distinction between a SaMD and medical device software

- International Medical Device Regulators Forum (IMDRF) recent developments

- EU Medical Device Regulation (MDR) required changes

- Discussion of FDA’s pre-certification program for SaMD development

- Requirements for Quality Management System and key characteristics for SaMDs

- Review of IEC 62304- Software Lifecycle Process Standard and key considerations for Design History File

- Clinical Evaluation considerations of SaMDs

 

Throughout the presentation, we will highlight recent regulatory changes as they apply to Medical Device software and how businesses can best prepare for upcoming regulatory submissions.
