Quality and Regulatory Forum for Medical Technologies

Objectives

Irish Medtech Association’s Quality & Regulatory Forums are normally held twice yearly and represent important face to face networking events for QA/RA specialists in the medtech sector in Ireland. Forum meetings normally attract 70 participants with meeting agendas developed based upon Irish Medtech Association member feedback and in conjunction with the Chair and the Vice-chair of the Forum and members of Irish Medtech Association's Regulatory Steering Committee. In 2013, a major theme of forum meetings was the Revision of the Medical Devices Directives. 2013 Forum meetings provided Irish Medtech Association members with updates on the status of the regulations, the legislative process and major milestones as well as updates on important shorter term measures including notified body oversight, unannounced audits and clinical evaluations. Forum participants were presented with a unique opportunity to benchmark on wide ranging topical quality and regulatory issues and assess impact to business of same. Typically, industry specialists from across Irish Medtech Association member companies and invited expert national and European speakers (including Notified Bodies/ Competent Authorities etc.) guide Forum participants through a dynamic series of presentations and discussions on diverse topics including post-market surveillance & risk management, CAPA, continuous improvement in quality assurance and audit trends among many others depending on member feedback and requests. Round table breakout sessions are also typically held to facilitate informal interaction between Forum participants, on the day.
