Why Should You Attend:

Software problems are now the third-leading cause for recalls of medical devices. Most recalls are because of incorrect verification and validation for safety. Most of the knowledge on how to do a comprehensive V&V is not widely understood. Software design is a complex set of interactions within the device, with the connecting devices, and with users of the device. Usually multiple factors affect the device performance. Therefore right validation is the key to prevent device recalls.
