An intensive 2 day course on requirements for validation of medical device software as contained in EN (IEC) 62034

Background
The coming amendments to the Medical Devices Directive concerning software and the FDA’s Quality System Regulation requirements for software as expressed in 21 CFR 820.30(g), 70(i), 75 all requires the manufacturer to incorporate software life-cycle processes into his quality system.
The new standard EN (IEC) 62304 Medical device software – software life-cycle processes is a tool to fulfil these requirements.
The standard provides a framework of life-cycle processes with activities and tasks necessary for the safe design and maintenance of medical device software. This standard provides requirements for each life-cycle process.
