Medical Device Single Audit Programme (MDSAP)

The Medical Device Single Audit Program (MDSAP) was developed by the International Medical Device Regulators Forum (IMDRF) to conduct regulatory audits of the quality management systems (QMS) used by manufacturers of medical devices.

The MDSAP audit is based on BS EN ISO 13485:2016 Medical devices – Quality management systems – Requirements for regulatory purposes - with the applicable regulatory requirements of the participating jurisdictions – Australia, Brazil, Canada, Japan and the USA – included as areas of focus. Audits conducted in accordance with the MDSAP follow a closely prescribed process of defined tasks. An MDSAP audit uses a process approach, based on a foundation of risk management, to select samples of procedures and records to examine. The audit focuses on how risks are identified and addressed.

This course will prepare you to host a MDSAP audit within your organisation, and allow you to determine if your own internal QMS processes are consistent with requirements of the MDSAP for the jurisdictions where your products are marketed, or for those markets which you are planning to access.
