How Manufacturers create compliant Technical Documentation
Creating Technical Documentation (TD) poses challenges for many manufacturers. Those who do not work carefully during the creation process and fail to meet requirements risk not only time-consuming but also costly inquiries and additional requests from Notified Bodies.
Medical device manufacturers must provide technical documentation for every medical device, as it is a prerequisite for its approval. Depending on the intended use and risk classification, specific requirements for the TD must be implemented. These requirements stem from the applicable essential safety and performance requirements and the associated applicable standards, guidelines, and directives.
In this seminar, in addition to learning about the many new and revised requirements, you will discover how to create compliant technical documentation, which typical hurdles you can overcome with practical tips, and how to successfully update existing technical documentation.
