Pre-Filled Syringes and Injectable Drug Devices Workshop Day

SAE Media Group is proud to present the Pre-Filled Syringes and Injectable Drug Devices Workshop Day...

A Roadmap to Regulation Quality Management Systems and Technical Standards:

The current regulatory environment for medical devices and combination products is sparking a significant shift in key device development processes in the industry. With the implementation of new regulatory requirements and standards such as the EU MDR, Article 117, post marketing safety reports, the ISO change management standard and the revision to ISO 14971, it is increasingly important for companies to prepare for this paradigm shift. Further challenges arise when developing products for international markets, requiring the need to align practices to the various local regulations. This workshop will aim to provide regulatory considerations to navigate and prepare for implementing the upcoming changes in the management systems and technical standards for the medical device and combination product development.

Testing requirements of Pre-Filled Syringes

This Workshop will describe the regulatory testing requirements of pre-filled syringes. It will give an overview of materials used for PFS as well as the need for testing throughout the different stages of a PFS.
 

Extractables and Leachables: Considerations for PFS Platforms

When developing a successful combination product, the examination of risk of extractable and leachable contamination and container interaction is key to ensuring correct and safe drug delivery. The topic of extractables and leachables is a key consideration in many fields of pharmaceuticals. This workshop will focus on the challenges and regulations within combination products and pre-filled syringes, discussing how we can improve as an industry to provide a comprehensive roadmap for successful and effective testing.

    WHAT IS CPD?

    CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development’. It is essentially a philosophy, which maintains that in order to be effective, learning should be organised and structured. The most common definition is:

    ‘A commitment to structured skills and knowledge enhancement for Personal or Professional competence’

    CPD is a common requirement of individual membership with professional bodies and Institutes. Increasingly, employers also expect their staff to undertake regular CPD activities.

    Undertaken over a period of time, CPD ensures that educational qualifications do not become obsolete, and allows for best practice and professional standards to be upheld.

    CPD can be undertaken through a variety of learning activities including instructor led training courses, seminars and conferences, e:learning modules or structured reading.

    CPD AND PROFESSIONAL INSTITUTES

    There are approximately 470 institutes in the UK across all industry sectors, with a collective membership of circa 4 million professionals, and they all expect their members to undertake CPD.

    For some institutes undertaking CPD is mandatory e.g. accountancy and law, and linked to a licence to practice, for others it’s obligatory. By ensuring that their members undertake CPD, the professional bodies seek to ensure that professional standards, legislative awareness and ethical practices are maintained.

    CPD Schemes often run over the period of a year and the institutes generally provide online tools for their members to record and reflect on their CPD activities.

    TYPICAL CPD SCHEMES AND RECORDING OF CPD (CPD points and hours)

    Professional bodies and Institutes CPD schemes are either structured as ‘Input’ or ‘Output’ based.

    ‘Input’ based schemes list a precise number of CPD hours that individuals must achieve within a given time period. These schemes can also use different ‘currencies’ such as points, merits, units or credits, where an individual must accumulate the number required. These currencies are usually based on time i.e. 1 CPD point = 1 hour of learning.

    ‘Output’ based schemes are learner centred. They require individuals to set learning goals that align to professional competencies, or personal development objectives. These schemes also list different ways to achieve the learning goals e.g. training courses, seminars or e:learning, which enables an individual to complete their CPD through their preferred mode of learning.

    The majority of Input and Output based schemes actively encourage individuals to seek appropriate CPD activities independently.

    As a formal provider of CPD certified activities, SAE Media Group can provide an indication of the learning benefit gained and the typical completion. However, it is ultimately the responsibility of the delegate to evaluate their learning, and record it correctly in line with their professional body’s or employers requirements.

    GLOBAL CPD

    Increasingly, international and emerging markets are ‘professionalising’ their workforces and looking to the UK to benchmark educational standards. The undertaking of CPD is now increasingly expected of any individual employed within today’s global marketplace.
