Course Description

In the dynamic world of medical devices, effective risk management is more critical than ever.

Are you confident your risk management strategy can keep pace with rapidly evolving device features and AI integrations?

As medical devices evolve with new design features and indications for use, so do the associated risks — from potential harm to patients to broader implications for property, the environment, and even your company’s compliance standing.

With medical technology advancing faster than ever, relying on outdated risk frameworks could leave your company exposed to unanticipated risks that weren’t even on the radar five years ago. How prepared are you for risks that emerge post-market?

This webinar dives deep into the ISO 14971 standard, guiding you through the entire risk management process, from initial design to post-market activities.

You’ll learn how to assess and mitigate risks across all phases of a device’s life cycle and supply chain, ensuring the highest level of safety and regulatory compliance.

Key focus areas include:

    • Identifying and addressing risks that evolve as your product develops new features or enters new markets.
    • Scrutinizing risks from every angle, whether related to patient safety, device failure, or broader environmental impacts.
    • Ensuring that vital risk management information is effectively transferred and maintained throughout a product’s lifecycle, even as projects change hands or move between departments and companies.
    • Building a risk management process that survives organizational changes, preserving critical information through every phase of development and production.

With increasing FDA oversight and the growing complexity of medical devices, now is the time to ensure your risk management practices are not only compliant with ISO 14971 but are also adaptable to new challenges and evolving regulatory requirements.

Don’t let regulatory blind spots or emerging risks catch your team off-guard.

José Mora is a Principal Consultant specializing in Manufacturing Engineering and Quality Systems. For over 30 years he has worked in the medical device and life sciences industry specializing in manufacturing, process development, tooling, and quality systems.

Prior to working full time as a consulting partner for Atzari Consulting, José served as Director of Manufacturing Engineering at Boston Scientific and as Quality Systems Manager at Stryker Orthopedics, where he introduced process performance, problem solving, and quality system methodologies. During that time he prepared a white paper on the application of lean manufacturing methods to the creation and management of controlled documents and a template for strategic deployment.

José led the launch of manufacturing at a start-up urology products company as Director of Manufacturing for UroSurge, Inc. at the University of Iowa’s business incubator park in Coralville, IA, creating a world-class medical device manufacturing operation, with JIT, Kanban systems, visual workplace and lean manufacturing practices.

José worked for 10 years at Cordis Corporation, now a Cardinal Health company, where he led the successful tooling, process development and qualification of Cordis’ first PTA (percutaneous transluminal angioplasty) catheter. His medical device experience includes surgical instruments, PTA & PTCA dilatation and guiding catheters, plastic surgery implants and tissue expanders, urology implants and devices for the treatment of incontinence, delivery systems for brachytherapy, orthopedic implants and instruments, and vascular surgery grafts and textiles.

During his time at Cordis, José managed the Maintenance and Facilities Department, taking that operation to a level rated as “tops” by the UK Department of Health and Social Services (DHSS) during one of their intensive audits. Jose managed Manufacturing Engineering as part of the Guiding Catheter Core Team of managers, a team that took the Cordis Guiding Catheter business to lead the market, bringing it up from fourth place. By introducing world-class techniques, the Guiding Catheter design and manufacturing was completely re-engineered for robust design and tooling, under Jose’s leadership.

He was also instrumental and played a leadership role in the complete re-engineering of the Tooling Control System, including design drafting, the tool shop and technical support. Wherever he has worked, he has a track record of introducing world-class methodologies such as Kepner-Tregoe, Taguchi techniques, Theory of Constraints, Lean Manufacturing, Five S (Visual Workplace), process validation to Global Harmonization Task Force standards, and similar approaches.
