Prior to releasing new products to the market, medical device companies must obtain approval from the Food and Drug Administration.  This approval process consists of filing a Pre-market Notification with the FDA, also known as an FDA 510k application, at which point the submission will be reviewed by the appropriate agencies to determine whether the new device is substantially equivalent (SE) or not substantially equivalent (NSE).  This process can be complicated, especially for companies that are not familiar with the details or concepts related to 510(k) submissions.

 

For companies with limited RA/QA resources, as well as industry professionals interested in learning about the FDA 510k application, this web seminar will introduce the basic concepts and best practices of the 510(k) submission process, as well as review methods for finding predicates, using guidance documents and interacting with the agency.  Participants will have the opportunity to learn about the different types of 510(k) submissions and the benefits and drawbacks of using the 3rd party review process.  Other communication tools will also be discussed, including the request for information (513g) and preIDE meeting.
