B110 - Risk Management & Analysis
Overview
- Provides a workshop type setting in which the major risk identification and risk reducing methods will be characterized. Summary and introduction of issues the FDA and Europe faced early on that moved them towards the focus of requiring risk management in all aspects of product development and manufacturing. The EN/ISO 14971:2012 will be featured, however, its requirements parallel those of all major risk management standards and will be useful in all industries.
- The seminar includes detailed discussion and workshops for several key risk management tools:
• Risk Management Planning
• Risk Management file
• Hazard Analysis (ID product and process hazards - determine level of risk)
• Fault Tree Analysis - FTA - Product/Design
• Fault Tree Analysis - FTA - Process
• Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) Product/Design
• Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) Process
• Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) Use/Application
- Hazard Analysis & Critical COntrol Point Analysis - HACCP Analysis
- Reducing (mitigating and controlling) risk
- Review & explanation of standards relevant to medical device risk management
- Workshop are performed in class for practical experience - as time permits
- Other industrial sectors (Aerospace, Defense, Space, Pharmaceutical...) will be represented in part to show the wide application of these tools
- CD with several public domain resources
