FDAnews and Dan O’Leary, President of Ombu Enterprises, have developed a comprehensive workshop that is packed with immediate use tools and techniques to improve current programs. This course goes well beyond FMEA to show attendees how its limitations could be their downfall.
Plus, the program provides interactive sessions to put the tools to use in mock scenarios.
Learn how ETA, FTA, HACCP, PHA and HAZOP could be the keys to avoiding a device disaster.

• IEC 62304, Medical device software — Software life-cycle processes
• FDA Draft Guidance — Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Optimize Medical Device Design
• The basic concepts of the assurance case
Seating is at a premium for this event — Register today. Other areas the event will focus on include:
• How the FDA and international regulatory bodies measure the severity of a risk and what the different levels of seriousness are

• Understand how to score risks and create a risk “scorecard” — how to use severity and probability
