Online course: Clinical Investigation – Supporting the Clinical Evaluation of a Medical Device
|
| An important part of the technical documentation of a medical device is its clinical evaluation, which, according to the MDR, should be based on a review of the relevant literature of identical or similar medical devices or the results of the medical device’s clinical investigation and the results of post-market clinical follow-up of the medical device. For the auditor of a clinical evaluation, the results of the clinical investigation of a given medical device are essential for a positive assessment of its safety and efficacy. It is therefore very important that the clinical investigation of a medical device is planned and conducted in accordance with good clinical practice and ISO 14155 standard. |
Aim
This workshop will provide you with an overview of the key elements of the clinical investigation of a medical device that influence the credibility of the results and, consequently, the clinical evaluation of the medical device. Therefore, the workshop presents in more detail:
- the phases of a clinical investigation,
- the key documents of the investigation, which include:
- the approved investigation plan,
- traceability of the conduct of the investigation,
- data processing and analysis, and
- presentation of the results of the investigation.
The knowledge you gain will enable you to:
- monitor the planning and conduct of a clinical investigation of your medical device,
- determine the indication(s) or intended clinical use of your medical device; and
- identify potential weaknesses in the emerging clinical evaluation, especially for those medical devices that may have multiple intended use, whereas the clinical investigation can often evaluate only one intended use.
