Introduction

A manufacturer’s responsibility for a medical device does not come to an end when the device is CE marked and sold on the market.  The period after the sale is just as important as the pre-market approval stage.  It is in this period that much more can be learnt about a device and where the obligations lie with manufacturers to have an appropriate post market surveillance system in place. This one day practical workshop will introduce you to the concept of post market surveillance, what it is, how to implement it effectively and how to understand and interpret the regulatory requirements for your products.  There will be ample time for case study exercises and group discussions throughout the day.
