New-Era Innovations in Medical Devices and their Regulation under South African Law

Webinar

--

September 30th, 10:30 AM CAT

New medical devices arrive at record speed ...

... But what is the response of South Africa's legal and regulatory bodies?

 

  • Not all medical devices have been created equal.  How are they classified by their intended use and design?

  • What is the impact of acts like POPI and Electronic Communications Act on new medical devices, such as apps and wearables?

  • Covid-19 saw the rapid and widespread introduction of ventilators.  How does the government seek to regulate these?

  • What are the latest draft amendments to the Regulations relating to medical devices, 2021 (GN - 435/GG - 44593) and how will they streamline regulations across supply, registration, licencing, management and investigations?
“Innovation, the pandemic, and regulations are shifting the Life Sciences industry in dynamic and interesting ways, staying in the know on how legislative changes impact your business is par for the course now more than ever before in this new normal”.
