All personnel especially involved in product, process, validations, cGMP responsibilities

Description:

Medical devices software have become integral and indispensable in the controlling, running and monitoring of medical product processes, whether in the pharmaceuticals, medical device, biologics or dietary supplements industries. 21 CFR Part 11 addresses all electronic records; hence many of these applications that feed into cGMP data acquisition and records come under its purview. Foraging through the Internet forums will show three is much confusion on the subject. 21 CFR Part 11 is increasingly being used for e-records and e-signatures and in company-wide ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems. Regulatory auditors are more comfortable with delving into software issues. Real world software V&V is increasingly more important in today’s resource constrained industrial environment to ensure that it fulfills its intended purpose. The verification and validation of medical device software is coming under increased scrutiny by the U.S. FDA, and especially any software involved in cGMP compliance. Our presenter John Lincoln will guide you through the use of the FDA guidance documents, GAMP, 21 CFR 11, and other applicable industry software validation models. This coupled with the ISO 14971 / ICH Q9 Risk Management models as well as their real-world implementation will be addressed in this webinar. This session will also discuss and explain how to establish an effective software documentation model which is compliant and field tested (FDA and Notified Body) as per 21 CFR Part 11 guidance. This discussion will focus on a preferred U.S. FDA documentation “model” in various applications, including ERP, in-device, as-device, process/equipment control, wherever cGMP data / records are gathered, utilized, stored and retrieved.

Areas Covered in the Session:

21 CFR Part 11, Electronic Records / Electronic Signatures – What it is and what it isn’t?
The proven V&V 11-element “model” – useful for all software V&V
Developing test cases / scripts from Part 11
“Risk Based” – what it means in SW V&V and how it should be used
Why Part 11 violations seldom show up directly on 483’s, but are there nonetheless
Insights on Cloud issues and Agile issues
