Finding your way through the regulations, standards, and interpretations applicable to health software – particularly software as a medical device (SaMD) – can be daunting.
In this two-day workshop, regulatory experts will explore the current and evolving global regulatory requirements affecting SaMD, how to determine when software is considered regulated as SaMD and how to determine correct class/classifications under global requirements. Attendees will learn how to address the numerous challenges in performing risk management/assessment for software by completing required evaluations using practical case studies.
Navigating the expectations for software products is particularly challenging and requires a different approach from other medical devices. Join us for a review of the current and evolving global regulatory requirements affecting software as a medical device (SaMD). Our expert faculty will address both how to determine when software is considered regulated as SaMD and how to determine correct class/classifications under global requirements. Since performing risk management/assessment for software is generally more challenging, attendees will work through completing required evaluations using practical case studies.
Please note that there will be an FDA speaker present at this workshop. The name of the speaker will be announced closer to the event.
