R&D WORKSHOP: DESIGN HISTORY FILE CONTENTS AND REMEDIATION

Companies commonly face the challenge of assessing and updating design history files (DHF) as a result of design obsolesce, product updates, transfer of design ownership and changing regulatory requirements. This seminar will provide an overview of DHF requirements, presents a framework for DHF gap analysis and remediation, and offer a checklist of critical DHF assessment areas for complex medical devices.
