Packaging Trends Leading to Increased 483’s

0 h 35 min

In this presentation, we will explore recent packaging trends in the medical device industry, particularly those highlighted by the increasing number of FDA 483 letters issued to manufacturers. By analyzing data from the FDA website, we will identify common issues cited in these letters, focusing on problems related to packaging design, processing, and validation testing.

Participants will gain valuable insights into the specific packaging issues that have led to FDA 483 citations. The presentation will cover various aspects of packaging manufacturing, including design flaws that compromise the integrity of sterile barriers, processing errors that affect product safety and efficacy, and shortcomings in validation testing that fail to meet regulatory standards. Understanding these issues is crucial for manufacturers aiming to improve their packaging processes and avoid regulatory pitfalls.

To help manufacturers prevent these trends from occurring within their companies, the presentation will also highlight the importance of following validated standard test methods. Specific standards and test methods called out in the reviewed data will be discussed, offering practical guidance on how to implement these methods effectively. By adhering to these validated standards, manufacturers can ensure their packaging processes meet regulatory requirements and maintain the highest levels of product safety and quality.

By the end of this webinar, attendees will have a comprehensive understanding of the recent packaging trends leading to FDA 483 letters and practical strategies for preventing these issues within their own operations. This knowledge is essential for packaging engineers, quality assurance professionals, and regulatory affairs specialists dedicated to maintaining compliance and ensuring the safety and effectiveness of medical device packaging.
