Course description
The ISO 10993 standards are used by medical device manufacturers for the evaluation of biological safety testing, and in late 2018 they were updated to adopt a more risk-based approach to biocompatibility testing.

In addition, you will be able understand biocompatibility in the context of risk management, the MDR safety requirements and from a global perspective, cemented by a series of case studies.
