A little more detail...
Confusion over requirements combined with the effort and expense to complete PMCF plans makes them rather challenging. PMCF planning is also not an activity that can be done in a silo. There are many factors and inputs to the plan, including the PSUR/PMS data, CER, and risk management file… all of which are accustomed to working in silos. Not here. Without collaboration, your PMCF plan may end up being more complicated than it needs to be.
This webinar will discuss these topics and more:
-
Getting your teams onboard with the purpose of PMCF - safe devices!
-
Weighing the cost of PMCF with the cost of non-compliance; rationales for gaining budget approval
-
Evaluating clinical data and rank by data quality and quantity; used to develop risk based strategy
-
Understanding and interpreting the MDCG Guidance for consistency across technical documentation
-
Picking a strategy... and sticking with it
-
Removing the silos and aligning PMCF needs with PMS, CERs, and risk management
-
CASE STUDY: Making it all work together
