Course description
The newly finalised Medical Device Regulation will mean significant changes to clinical evidence with more clinical data being required for riskier device products.
Day One (Clinical Evaluations) will focus on clinical evaluation reports and will provide you with a comprehensive understanding of literature reviews, proving equivalence, medical writing and managing CER's throughout the life-cycle of a product.
Day Two (Clinical Investigations and Post Market Clinical Studies) will examine the requirements and design protocols of clinical investigations for new devices with case study examples. This day will also cover post-market clinical studies for existing products and will look at the impact of the new Regulation.
