Biocompatibility testing (ISO10993) is not just a box ticking exercise, but a crucial part of the risk management process (ISO 14971) and ensures the safety of medical devices. Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices is often not well understood and typically falls upon QA Manager to comply with its requirements. This hands-on training course will help participants understand biocompatibility requirements for their medical devices and develop approaches to go about testing their products. It should be noted that not all testing are required to determine the biological safety of medical devices. Depending on the nature of the materials and combinations, a literature review and report may be the only justification required to save cost and time on performing unnecessary testing. This course will help you decide if testing is appropriate, and help with researching to generate data for justifications to support a biologically safe device. Attendance certificate will be provided at the end of the training.
