Today's FDA inspectors focus like lasers on device V&V testing methods … how to justify them statistically … and the results.
Manufacturers must answer the two key design verification and validation questions: was the product made right and was the right product made?
Testing is the only way to effectively answer them.
Finally, the test samples must demonstrate that the results can be reasonably applied to larger production runs and maintain safety.
But how many units should be tested? And, can they be statistically justified?
These questions have baffled devicemakers for years. The answers are … well, it depends.
Join design control statistical expert Steve Walfish as he helps manufacturers understand exactly what it does depend on. During his presentation, attendees will learn:
• The requirements for statistical techniques and how they impact design control processes (21 CFR 820.30(f)(g))
• What types of requirements lend themselves to statistics in verification and validation (hypothesis testing, confidence interval, design of experiments)
• How variance in the population can impact the sample size necessary to establish objective evidence
• The relationship between risk and sample size (i.e., risk to patient — critical major, minor)
Attendees will learn proven tactics and tools to develop a strong statistical methods program — and a thorough understanding of what FDA auditors look for when they come for an inspection.
