Background
The monitoring of how a medical device, respectively, a combination product performs on the market, is a vital component of the lifecycle. A Post-Market Surveillance system implemented helps not only to comply with specific regulations but also supports to improve the quality of the products. It helps to get an understanding of the product, about the safety and performance of the product, and helps to avoid critical issues by early identification of problems. Also, Post-Market Surveillance helps to have an eye on the market and how it further develops related to changes that might impact the use of the product.
This Webinar provides an introduction to Post-Market Surveillance and to the technical report ISO TR 20416, which provides additional background information, especially for medical device manufacturers.

All people involved in Post-Market Surveillance for Medical Devices and Combination Products, e.g., staff in Quality Assurance, Vigilance, Supplier Management, as well as people engaged in Audits and Inspections.
