US FDA Medical Device Quality System (QSR) Compliance Course: Design Controls, Verification & Validation (Online Event: Oct 27Th - Oct 28Th, 2025)

(MENAFN- GlobeNewsWire - Nasdaq) Market opportunities include providing training and consulting services to medical device companies for FDA and EU MDR compliance, especially in design controls, verification and validation. This can enhance safety, efficiency, reduce liabilities, and improve profitability for companies navigating regulatory requirements.

Dublin, Sept. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "US FDA Medical Device Quality System (QSR) Compliance: Design Controls, Verification & Validation (Oct 27th - Oct 28th, 2025)" training has been added to ResearchAndMarkets's offering.

This course provides comprehensive training on the US FDA Quality System Regulation (QSR) for medical devices, focusing on critical aspects such as design controls, verification & validation (V&V), document management, and risk-based decision making.

Proper adherence and documentation of the FDA's Design Control and Validation requirements are key to any medical product project's success.

This seminar will provide valuable guidance to regulated companies in development and implementation of Design Control Planning and Techniques for new product development under 21 CFR 820.30, "Design Control", and ISO 13485 7.3. Design Verification and Validation, Mandatory Device Safety/Risk and "as needed" Human Factors are also discussed.

Also regulatory compliance proof of "progress against plan", and other activities requiring a planned documented rationale. It should be an important part of a company's IP (Intellectual Property).Follow the 10 required steps (both US FDA and EU MDR)to design control compliance in R&D. Regular use of a few simple but powerful tools will virtually eliminate "fire fighting" in a new project. Regular use can contribute greatly to reduction of scheduling uncertainty, incomplete projects when time is running out, increased product liability, assist in company-wide cost reduction efforts, with less chance of recalls, and an improved bottom line.

Why Should You Attend

The FDA expects companies to manage the regulatory requirements of design control, and verification/validation with consideration of all applicable standards. How can the FDA's Design Control requirements, 21 CFR 820.30, which include a V&V component, actually facilitate this? The EU MDR and their notified bodies are no different. How can this be done from a project's inception? How can a Project Leader ensure critical elements are not omitted until late in the project when disaster looms? How does this translate into better, safer product in the field. Growing high-profile field problems indicate that much design control is perfunctory, poor or non-existent. Service Risk Management ad Files are an FDA requirement in this process. Human Factors / Use[ability] Engineering is also required in design if the device "interface" applies.
