Even though these files serve different purposes, it is essential to understand how they are mutually inclusive for effective technical documentation. This seminar offers a deeper insight into the documentation part of medical device manufacturing. Moreover, the seminar will cover the latest requirements proposed by FDA and European Union.
Let’s dive deeper into the topics covered!
Course Overview
Breaking down each of these terms for a better understanding of freshers into medical device manufacturing.- Design History File (DHF): Includes an entire history of the device’s design, which justifies the currently approved design.
- Device Master Record (DMR): Associated with device production and highlights the requirements like material, equipment, and surroundings.
- Device History Record (DHR): Contains production-related documents which consist of dates, quantity, and labels of final products.
The core purpose of this seminar is to highlight the general safety and performance requirements. Moreover, the coach pays special attention to the file auditing process by FDA and notified the body to make the execution of the concept easier for professionals.
