Overview of ISO 13485:2016

This first part introduces ISO 13485, explaining what it is, how it's used, and the purpose and benefits of a QMS for Medical Devices.

Principles of ISO 13485

The ISO 13485:2016 standard embraces 8 core principles: customer focus, the engagement of people (staff and managers) within the organization, strong leadership, continual improvement, evidence-based decision making, a process approach, a system approach to management, and relationship management.

Requirements of an Quality Management System for Medical Devices

This module takes a step-by-step look at the relevant clauses in the ISO 13485:2016 standard in order to understand what they mean and what your company needs to do to comply with them.

Documented Information

Clear, well-written, and non-bureaucratic documentation is an important part of an ISO 13485 QMS for Medical Devices.

A point worth noting here is that documents are used for storing and sharing information, while records are essentially hard copies of results (such as from an audit) or evidence of activities that have been performed. And while documents get revised from to time and are generally kept up-to-date, records are static and never revised.

Internal Auditing

This part introduces auditing techniques, including the fundamentals (audit methodologies), and the roles and responsibilities expected from a company's internal auditor.

  • Internal Auditing Basics
  • Audit Types
  • Roles and Responsibilities

Audit Records

Audit proceedings and findings must be documented according to ISO's specific requirements. The reports you compile (which show nonconformities and the corrective actions taken to address them) must be retained as they will be reviewed during the certification audit and subsequent surveillance audits. Points covered in this module include:

  • Audit Preparation
  • Conducting an Audit
  • Audit Reporting
  • Audit Completion and Follow-Up

Risk Management

The ISO 13485 standard requires that risk-based thinking be a part of your Quality Management System's processes, and risk management be a key consideration with regards to patient and/or end-user safety when using a medical device.

Steps for Implementation & Certification

The final part examines the steps necessary to implement an ISO 13485 QMS for Medical Devices and achieve certification.

Who Should Take ISO 13485:2016 Auditor Training?

The course is ideal for:

  • Staff who've been appointed members of their company's ISO 13485 internal audit team.
