Course Description:
When done correctly, information from risk management programs and post market surveillance activities should be fed into the product development life cycle activities to incrementally improve the design of every medical device. Unfortunately, the endeavor to link these potentially disparate programs and groups within a company can be an extremely costly activity when done incorrectly or poorly.
Many companies today have a risk management process including a risk management plan (RMP) which evaluates the product during development and a separate post market surveillance plan (PMSP) to collect reports of problems with devices already on the market. But in many cases information collected under the PMSP is rarely incorporated into the RMP in an integrated way which can lead to the required design changes in an expedient and efficient way when the risks reach the “tipping point.” By utilizing the knowledge generated from the integration of two disparate processes together, a robust system must be created to identify the “tipping point” and to anticipate the appropriate design changes which may be required to keep the product safe and effective to perform as intended.
The goal of these relatively new integrated programs is to develop a knowledge base within the company which assesses and proactively stores both benchtop and real world medical device use experience and feedback (i.e. corporate knowledge base about the device) and also assessments of reported issues for quick and easy use.
Learning Objectives:
- Review of risk management regulatory requirements, guidance documents and the process to develop a RMP.
- ISO 14971.
- Guidance for Industry: Q9 Quality Risk Management.
- Guidance for Industry and FDA Premarket and Design Control Reviewers: Medical Device Use-Safety: Incorporating Human Factors Engineering into Risk Management.
- Guidance for Industry: Format and Content of Proposed Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies (REMS), REMS Assessments and Proposed REMS Modifications.
- Review of post market surveillance regulatory requirements, guidance documents and the process to develop a PMSP.
- 21 CFR 822 Post Market Surveillance.
- Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff- Postmarket Surveillance Under Section 522 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act.
- Discuss ways to align and integrate information from RMP and PMSP activities to create a robust documented knowledge base.
- Understand anticipated pain points when integrating the knowledge base acquired from the integrated RMP and PMSP activities with required device design change processes.
- Understand how specific required information and knowledge management tools (like documented SOPs, work instructions and forms) can assist in improving product design.
- Understand how to evaluate the potentially required device design changes due to changes in the expected device risk profile resulting from the integrated RMP and PMSP knowledge base (i.e. how to rank issues which might lead to required device design changes as a way to prioritize device design changes).
- Discuss ways to create and use a robust knowledge system designed to lead to device design changes as quickly as possible when necessary as part of the device development life cycle program (i.e. how to improve product design change management).

Local Attractions
Cathedral of St. Paul
Built in 1915 on the highest point in the city, this cathedral is one of the largest in the country. A replica of St. Peter's in Rome, the building boasts a newly restored 175-foot-high copper dome, a massive rose window, and granite-and-travertine construction.
Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum
Set on a bluff overlooking the Mississippi River, the Weisman Art Museum is part of the University of Minnesota campus. You won't miss the trademark Frank Gehry-designed building; its fluid form defies conventional architectural lines, and its metallic finish gleams in the sunlight. The permanent collection is especially strong in American modernist paintings, ceramics, Mimbres pottery, and Korean furniture.
Historic Fort Snelling
This living history museum commemorates the establishment of a fort here in the wilderness in 1819 by Col. Josiah Snelling and his troops, who opened the area for homesteaders. Costumed guides are the focus of a living history reenactment during the summer months, re-creating the activities of everyday army life during the 1820s.
Mill City Museum
Minneapolis's Mill City Museum recounts the history of the flour industry that earned the city the nickname "Mill City" in the late 19th century. Set in the ruins of what was once the world's largest flour mill the museum re-creates old milling techniques with period equipment railroad cars and interactive exhibits. Visitors also learn the impact of the nation's first high-quality finely milled flour on the gastronomy of the Twin Cities and the country.
Minneapolis Institute of Arts
More than 5,000 years and 80,000 pieces of fine and decorative arts comprise the permanent collection at the MIA, including a 2,000-year-old mummy, European masters (Rembrandt, Titian, and Monet, among others), architectural and decorative arts, and a comprehensive photography exhibit. If you're short on time, ask for the "Highlights" brochure to make sure you don't miss the museum's best.
Minnesota History Center
An impressive array of artifacts is housed in this three-story museum, including photographs, music, and videos, all of it celebrating Minnesota history. Kids enjoy sitting in the re-created basement of a Minnesota farmhouse while a simulated tornado passes overhead. Adults enjoy listening to recordings of Minnesota musicians, including Bob Dylan, Steven Greenberg, and Prince.
Minnesota Museum of American Art
Temporary exhibits are the rule at the Minnesota Museum of American Art, which overlooks the Mississippi River. Expect edgy, contemporary installation pieces, as well as paintings, fiber art, ceramics, works on paper, and works created from found objects.
Minnesota Zoo
"Russia's Grizzly Coast" became the Minnesota Zoo's newest exhibit in 2008 bison pumas and wolverines -- as well as exotic mainstays like tigers camels dolphins and monkeys. The Minnesota Zoo also includes an IMAX theater and a monorail for easy navigation of the grounds.
Mississippi River Visitor Center
Located inside the entrance to the Science Museum of Minnesota , the Mississippi River Visitor Center is operated by the National Park Service and designed to educate visitors about the Mississippi National River & Recreation Area. Park rangers can assist travelers with planning outdoor excursions, including canoe and riverboat trips, hiking, biking, and birding. If you're at all outdoorsy, it's worth a stop.
Science Museum of Minnesota
Hands-on exhibits introduce visitors to natural history, science, and technology in this massive museum. Highlights include the Human Body Gallery, navigating a virtual towboat down the Mississippi River, and a collection of fossils and prehistoric specimens. In warm months check out EarthScapes Mini Golf, a new activity designed to teach earth surface dynamics. There's also an Omnitheater.
University of Minnesota
One of the Midwest's oldest (1851) and most important universities, with 50,000 students on the Twin Cities campus, the UMN offers three significant museums -- the James Ford Bell Museum of Natural History, the University Art Gallery, and the Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum .The 4,800-seat Northrop Auditorium has been a home for distinguished performances since 1929, and the University Theatre has four separate stages.
Walker Art Center/Minneapolis Sculpture Garden
The Walker Art Center is as well known for its striking architectural features as for the edgy, contemporary art inside: paintings, sculptures, drawings, photographs, and multimedia installations. A fine-dining restaurant and cafe, both by Wolfgang Puck, and gift shop are also new. Across the street is the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden, the largest urban sculpture garden in the country. A variety of 20th-century sculpture shares space with horticultural plantings, including the famous "Spoonbridge and Cherry" sculpture.
