Design for Manufacturability Rapid Fire April Bright
Design for manufacturability (DFM) is a broadly-implemented step in today’s development process to ensure that a designed product can actually be manufactured. While the concept sounds simple, there are nuances to every supplier relationship and every new process.
Three suppliers—a contract manufacturer, additive manufacturer and plastics company—will each spend 15 minutes answering the following question: With orthopaedic customers, our greatest DFM pain point is ___ and the best strategy to change that is ___.
OEMs will learn best practices and ways to approach DFM with their supplier partners.
Modernize the Orthopaedic Supply Chain: A Surgeon’s ViewApril Bright
Orthopaedic device manufacturers face increased pressure to assist their hospital customers with the shift to value and accompanying quality and cost mandates. Hospitals have responded to these pressures by supporting more surgeries with reduced hospital and vendor staff, making the implant management process ripe for errors.
As the Hospital for Special Surgery's Chief of Knee Services since 2006 and Co-Chairman of the Quality Coordinating Committee since 2008, Steven Haas, M.D., has experienced firsthand the way that tremendous inefficiencies in the implant delivery system impact surgical outcomes and lead to greater costs for the hospital and manufacturer. For orthopaedic device company attendees, Haas will offer recommendations to assist hospital partners in meeting quality and cost demands.
During his Keynote Address, Haas will explain how technology can modernize the orthopaedic supply chain, including inventory management and the device labeling process, and eliminate "never events."
We’re at a point in healthcare where every dollar is watched, and a more efficient supply chain could be used to offset the cost of newer or improved implants.
La Sociedad Ecuatoriana de Pie Diabético, SEPID, en cumplimiento a los compromisos de propender el mejoramiento académico profesional mediante el impulso de programas permanentes de investigación científica en todas las áreas afines a las especialidades que intervienen en el pie diabético, presenta la primera Guía de Práctica Clínica del Pie Diabético que proporciona al profesional de la salud pautas y el abordaje integral multidisciplinario sobre la prevención, diagnóstico y tratamiento de ésta patología.
La Guía de Práctica Clínica (GPC) de Pie Diabético, ha sido adoptada y adaptada por profesionales miembros activos de la Sociedad Ecuatoriana de Pie Diabético y especialistas expertos en la materia. Contiene recomendaciones basadas en la mejor evidencia científica disponible y aplicable a la realidad del país, sobre la prevención, diagnóstico y tratamiento de esta patología.
La aplicación de las recomendaciones en la práctica médica deberá basarse, además, en el buen juicio clínico de quien las emplea como referencia, en las necesidades específicas y preferencias de cada paciente, no exime al profesional de la salud de su obligación ética y profesional de consultar y considerar atentamente las recomendaciones y las GPC actualizadas emitidas por autoridades sanitarias competentes. Es también responsabilidad del profesional verificar la normativa y la legislación sobre fármacos y dispositivos médicos a la hora de prescribirlos.
La Sociedad Ecuatoriana de Pie Diabético, SEPID, agradece y reconoce a la Dirección Nacional de Normatización del Ministerio de Salud Pública del Ecuador, el apoyo metodológico brindado en el proceso inicial de selección de la Guía de Práctica Clínica de Pie Diabético, actividad que fue realizada durante los meses de diciembre 2013 a marzo 2014.
OEMs and suppliers see promise in the ability of manufacturing and software to expand the use of custom implants in orthopaedics. Multiple companies are focused on the custom market. This session provides the surgeon perspective on these devices. What are the benefits? When should and shouldn't they be used? Will the market take off?
Unique Device Identification or UDI is a forever project. What's the best way for orthopaedic device companies to receive return on their investment? What best practices can be learned for a continually-smooth process? How can the data be leveraged to enhance your company’s value proposition? The true value of UDI is not in the identification number, but in the data that can be generated as a result of UDI. This session will provide attendees with an outline of the opportunities that manufacturers can leverage beyond implementation.
Coatings for implants and instruments continue to evolve as manufacturers seek the best surface for their devices. Attendees will leave this session with knowledge of new coating research and manufacturing techniques. Three suppliers will speak on the benefits, applications and manufacturing processes of three different coatings. A Q&A with all three presenters will follow.
As UDI deadlines roll out, OEMs are left with many questions on implementation and compliance, including:
How does FDA recommend we direct mark screws and small implants?
How should we proceed as we await the guidance on the Convenience Kit exemption?
What are best practices for entering submissions to GUDID?
How is FDA enforcing UDI?
FDA officials will speak on UDI adoption and UDI data quality. Bring your questions. Ample time will be saved for Q&A.
