With the implementation of IVDR requirements, IVD manufacturers have been challenged to align their internal processes and systems to comply with these rigorous regulations. In this practical presentation, Criterion Edge uncovers what we have learned from our experience in writing MDR-compliant CERs, and how urgently applicable some of these key learnings are in preparing a robust Performance Evaluation Report (PER).  

This presentation provides practical tips on how to assess for hidden traps and unexpected roadblocks that could impact the success of writing an IVDR-compliant PER. By performing a gap analysis and assessing the readiness and availability of critical resources, documents and expertise, you will be able to avoid project delays and discover efficiencies that will enable the on-time completion of a successful, IVDR-compliant PER.

[FREE WEBINAR] IVDR Readiness: Creating a Blueprint to Build a Strong PER

Click here to watch the recording of this webinar.

The IVDR has many companies scrambling and feeling a bit disorganized. The new regulations include multiple technical documents, as well as the Performance Evaluation Report (PER). But how do all of these pieces fit together? Given the large volume of submissions that Notified Bodies will be reviewing, and the short review times, organization and clarity are critical for the success of your application.  

In this webinar, we discuss the process of writing a PER, with careful attention to the importance of aligning technical documents to create a cohesive, well-organized report. Based on our experience with both the MDR and IVDR, we will discuss timelines, resources, and strategies to build a strong foundation to support your IVDR writing team.

[FREE WEBINAR] Integration of Plain Language Content and Infographics into HCP Communication Channels: Strategies to Enhance HCP Engagement

 

Click here to watch the recording of this webinar.

Healthcare companies continually strive to communicate important information about their drugs and devices to diverse audiences comprised of patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals (HCPs), and the general public. The use of plain language written communication can help ensure key health information and clinical research findings are understandable and accessible to all.  

But you might wonder “Isn’t plain language intended only for patient and caregiver consumption?  HCPs want factual, scientifically rigorous content, not the simplified messaging of plain language writing.”  The answer is…. not always.  The deliberate and targeted incorporation of plain language content into selected HCP communication channels can be an effective tool in your omnichannel communication plan.   

Join us as we present information you can use to develop effective HCP-focused plain language content such as: 

  • Key elements of plain language content – what it is and what it isn’t
  • How incorporation of plain language content into HCP-focused assets can create added value in HCP – patient interactions
  • Common content formats that can be enhanced by the use of plain language content
  • The elements of the Visual SRD and why HCPs prefer this format
  • How innovative use of plain language and infographics in HCP communications can support Medical Affairs as part of its omnichannel communication framework.

Click here to watch the recording of this webinar.

Healthcare companies continually strive to communicate important information about their drugs and devices to diverse audiences comprised of patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals (HCPs), and the general public. The use of plain language written communication can help ensure key health information and clinical research findings are understandable and accessible to all. 
 
In this second presentation of our Deep-Dive: Plain Language Writing webinar series, we will focus on best practices that guide the development of common forms of plain language communication intended for the patient, their families and/or caregivers, such as the: 
• Patient section of an EU MDR-compliant Summary of Safety and Clinical Performance (SSCP) for all Class III and Active Implantable Medical Devices (AIMD) 
• Plain Language Summary (PLS) of a published journal article 
• Lay summaries required under EU CTR for clinical trials on medicinal products

Join us as we discuss practical strategies you can use to develop effective patient-centered lay summary content.

You may be asking yourselves: 

  • Is my software considered a medical device? 
  • How do I address the clinical evaluation for my medical device software? 
  • How do I define the safety and performance outcomes, and other clinical evaluation parameters? 

Click the link above to get answers to these questions and to find out more about the topic of software as a medical device.
