    Introduction to Medical Device Regulations

    Monday - Friday, 8:30 - 5:00 p.m.
    January 8-12, 2001
    Dively Executive Education Center
    11240 Bellflower Road
    Case Western Reserve University
    Cleveland, Ohio 44106

    The Biomedical Engineering Department of Case Western Reserve
    University and the Edison BioTechnology Center, with the support of
    other leading Cleveland technology organizations, presents
    "Introduction to Medical Device Regulations," a five-day course on
    navigating medical products through the FDA approval process. The
    course will present a comprehensive overview of the FDA medical
    device regulations and various aspects of the approval process.

    This seminar will cover these key topics :

    … Introduction to FDA and Medical Device Regulations
    … Quality Assurance in Product Development
    … Design Controls: Requirements & Methods
    … Clinical Investigation of Medical Devices
    … Bioresearch Monitoring and Post-Approval Issues

    Course instructors will include regional and national experts from
    government, industry, the legal profession, and trade associations.
    Executives from local medical device companies will speak during
    lunch on the significance of the regulatory process to the
    introduction of new life-saving technologies.

    Who Should Attend?

    The course is designed for individuals involved in the design,
    development and manufacturing of medical devices. The course is also
    an excellent choice for biomedical engineering, medical and law
    students

    NOTE: Student enrollees must have 3rd year or higher status (i.e.,
    juniors, seniors, or graduate students).
    About The Course

    Requirements imposed by the federal government on the healthcare
    industry are comprehensive and complex. They impact all disciplines
    within the corporate and business structure. Regulations enacted by
    The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) influence the development of
    products in the pharmaceutical, medical device, biotechnology and
    healthcare information technology industries. They include all
    products used in the practice of healthcare from diagnosis to
    treatment and ongoing care.

    It is imperative that anyone responsible for designing,
    manufacturing, and use of medical devices understand the governing
    regulations. Participants will be introduced to the regulatory
    process in the international market as well. Often biomedical
    engineering curriculums do not include exposure to these critical
    areas. Therefore, adding this course to students' curriculum will
    give them a competitive advantage. The agenda is structured to
    educate biomedical engineering students and to provide basic and
    refresher training to industry participants.

    An intense, 40 hour, educational program will be led by instructors
    drawn from the requisite industries, legal practitioners and
    government regulators. Diversity within the faculty and participants
    will allow this complex subject to be viewed and understood from the
    "real-world" government, industry and legal perspectives. Broadly
    defined, the course will include the history and dynamics of the
    regulations, government and compliance enforcement structure,
    compliance policies and practices, case studies, round table
    discussions and extensive interaction with the faculty. Participants
    will receive a library of regulatory reference documents and resource
    information.
