Medical Device Software and Cybersecurity Courses – 5 Webinar Bundle – ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Medical Device Software and Cybersecurity Courses – 5 Webinar Pack” webinar has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

This exclusive Pack contains 5 courses:

1. IEC 62304 for Medical Device Software

2. Drafting a Software V&V Documentation Package and Protocol

3. Validation of Non-Product Software

4. IEC 62304 and Demystifying Software Validation using the Principles of LDLC

5. Medical Device Cybersecurity and FDA Compliance

Total Duration: 10 Hours

Medical device software can make or break a device. Badly developed, non-compliant software can compromise a device’s safety and reliability. The goal is that upon completion of this pack of courses, you should understand how to create and maintain safe software for medical devices throughout their life cycles. In addition to this, you should also understand how IEC 62304 interlinks with other standards such as ISO 14971 and ISO 13485.

The courses include IEC 62304 requirements and explains risk-based approach for Verification and Validation using protocols and GAMP. What if your software is not a product; how would you validate it? Well, this pack has answers to that.

Next, it takes you through a process of software validation giving you a complete overview of the imminent changes and their implications, using an innovative approach yet is based upon solid principles and proven practices. And finally, and importantly, the cyber-attacks threaten medical devices and how the industry is currently responding to them. You will learn the many ways of preventing and mitigating the cybersecurity risk, and about the industry’s best practices that can help your company do the same.

TOPIC 1: IEC 62304 for Medical Device Software

Speaker: Nancy Knettell

Duration: 60 Minutes

  • Why is having an IEC62304 Compliant Software Quality System important to both developing your software for 510K approval and how you can be putting your company at risk post-approval if you do not have a compliant system in place.
  • What is IEC62304 and how does it differ from other Compliance Standards such as ISO13485
  • What are the elements that constitute an IEC62304 Compliant System?
  • Benefits of developing to an IEC62304 standard
  • What are the components of the Software Lifecycle
  • What are the major Software Work Products developed to the standard?
  • How it fits in with a Company’s Standard Quality Process
  • One of the most common reasons that a Software Enabled Medical Device is denied a 510K is because the Guidance has not been followed
  • What are the potential audit consequences if the Company does not have an IEC62304 Compliance Quality System in place
  • Understand the regulatory need for IEC 62304 Guidance as it relates to submitting a 510K for Software Enabled Medical Devices
  • What constitutes compliance with the Standard
  • What areas does the Guidance Address
  • What are the legal consequences for the company with the submittal if the company does not adhere to the Guidance

TOPIC 2: Drafting a Software V&V Documentation Package and Protocol

Speaker: John E. Lincoln

Duration: 90 Minutes

TOPIC 3: Validation of Non-Product Software

Speaker: Thomas Bento

Duration: 60 Minutes

  • Software used as part of the manufacturing process (including software embedded in machine tools, statistical process control software, programmable logic controllers [PLCs], and software in automated inspection or test systems).
  • Software used in process validation (such as statistical calculation software, spreadsheets, etc.).
  • Software used in design and development processes (such as CAD software, CAM software, software development tools, software test tools, compilers, editors, code generators, etc.).
  • Software used to automate part of the quality process (such as complaint-handling systems, lot-tracking systems, training-database systems, etc.).
  • Software used to create, transmit, modify, or store electronic records that are required by regulation.
  • Software used to implement electronic signatures for documents required by regulation.
