Many medical device manufacturers have difficulty developing software in compliance with an array of regulations and standards including: FDA QSR, ISO 14971, and AAMI SW 68. The difficulty often is a lack of understanding how to interpret and apply the regulations to software in a manner that is both reasonable and compliant. This workshop provides practical guidance and suggestions for developing software that complies with the regulations in a cost-effective manner.
Pertinent regulations are reviewed and interpreted from the perspective of software development. In addition, the following topic areas will be discussed in depth: Software Development Process, Software Validation, Risk Management, and Software Configuration Management. An interactive exercise is included to reinforce the importance and value of Risk Management for devices that contain software.
