With medical device safety playing a critical role in healthcare, it is significant for organizations to ensure effectiveness by implementing a safety action plan to ensure success for the product. Medical devices are paramount when providing care to patients; however, they occasionally fail to operate OR are misused causing further harm to the patient or even death, which makes risk assessment and device reporting important junctures during development. All parties that are involved during the life cycle of the medical device outside the organization including government, manufacturer, vendor, and user facilities must be transparent and communicate properly to reduce risk and further advance into the marketplace.Time: 8:00 am - 3:45 pmVenue details: The Inn at Penn,A Hilton Hotel, 3600 Sansom Street, Philadelphia, 19104, USA
