Post-Market Surveillance and Real-World Evidence

Description

Post-market surveillance (PMS) is a vital process that ensures the ongoing safety, performance, and effectiveness of medical devices and pharmaceutical products after they reach the market. As real-world use introduces variables not always captured in pre-market studies, PMS becomes essential for identifying emerging risks, managing adverse events, and driving product improvements. This training offers a practical, in-depth look into how companies can build and maintain robust PMS systems that meet FDA and international regulatory requirements.

Participants will learn how to implement surveillance programs that support compliance and protect patient safety. Topics include adverse event reporting, complaint handling, data analysis, risk assessment, and regulatory strategy. Real-world case studies and expert insights will highlight common challenges and proven solutions.

The session also emphasizes collaboration across functions—regulatory affairs, quality assurance, product management—and with external stakeholders, including regulators and healthcare professionals. Attendees will leave with actionable tools to navigate the complex post-market landscape, ensure regulatory readiness, and promote a culture of transparency, compliance, and continuous improvement. Whether launching a new product or managing one already on the market, this training will sharpen your PMS strategy and support long-term product success.

WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND:

An ineffective PMS system can turn hidden product issues into major regulatory, financial, or safety problems. This training gives you the tools to stay ahead—by monitoring product performance, identifying risks early, and ensuring full compliance with FDA and global regulations. You’ll learn how to handle complaints, analyze post-market data, and drive continuous improvement with confidence. Gain practical skills, avoid costly setbacks, and protect both patients and your brand—don’t miss this essential session.
