Medical Device Software 62304 Compliance
Carolyn Troiano has more than 35 years of experience in computer system validation in the pharmaceutical, medical device, tobacco, and other FDA-regulated industries. She has worked directly, or on a consulting basis, for many of the larger pharmaceutical and tobacco companies in the US and Europe. Carolyn developed validation programs and strategies and participated in the review of 21 CFR Part 11, or the FDA’s electronic record/electronic signature (ER/ES) regulation. Carolyn is currently active in the Association of Information Technology Professionals (AITP), and Project Management Institute (PMI) chapters in the Richmond, VA area.
The webinar will leave you with the information needed to create and maintain good documentation that meets FDA compliance standards. You will learn about what must be done and what must not be done. In addition, you’ll learn about the various computer system validation deliverables and how to document them. This session will provide insight into the IEC 62304 standard as it is applied to medical device software.
You will learn about industry best practices for the delivery of reliable and safe software for medical devices.

Topic Background
This webinar will focus on medical devices, IEC 62304, and what is required for compliance. Medical devices can use very complex software applications, and any failure to function properly could lead to potential injury or death of a consumer or patient. There is a need to improve overall standards for medical device software to account for this high-risk potential.
The majority of software recalls in the 1990s were due to software defects that were a result of software being upgraded. There is a need to restructure medical device software development processes, and adopting IEC 62304 provides a standard for design that is accepted in the United States (US) and European Union (EU).
IEC 62304 is a risk-based approach to compliance that ensures the standards followed are appropriate for their potential assessed risk. IEC 62304 is a lifecycle approach that defines the activities and tasks required to ensure software for medical devices will be safe and reliable. Applying IEC 62304 will reduce your overall rate of software failure and improve your bottom line.
