We all know: ensuring the safety and efficacy of medical devices is critical to protecting patients and minimizing risks to healthcare providers.

One of the key challenges in achieving this goal is selecting and managing materials effectively, while maintaining supplier controls and identifying opportunities for proactive design changes.

In this panel discussion, experts in medical device development, regulatory compliance, and material science will share their insights on navigating material risks and implementing strategies to improve medical device safety.

Topics will include:

  • Best practices for material selection and supplier controls in medical device development
