There has been an explosion of new and revamped regulations for medical devices in China.
These new regulations touch on all aspects of medical devices — research and development, approval, manufacturing, distribution, and post-market surveillance. And they affect all devices — those currently in development as well as those that are already on the market.
John Balzano, a foremost authority on U.S. and China medical device regulations will cover how the new China rules for devices will be implemented, and address major concerns in detail, including:
• Changes in the basic requirements for registering a medical device in China (Some devices that previously needed registration no longer require it, while others do.)
• Increased enforcement powers for the CFDA to order recalls, terminate sales, freeze imports, issue greater penalties to devicemakers and shut down devicemakers
• New authority to impose a moratorium on a devicemaker who fails to satisfy registration requirements or even revoke licenses in serious cases
• New requirements for elements that must be listed on a device’s label
• Changes to medical device classification rules — including new requirements for registering Class I devices and new categories of devices
• New, more lenient rules governing when a manufacturer must have its manufacturing facility completed before registering a device
• And much more…
Attendees will come away from this 90-minute session understanding how the new regulations will affect operations in China … the problems companies are already encountering with the new regulations … and how they’re solving those problems.
