FDA's expectations are changing. Medical manufacturers are required by FDA and other global regulatory bodies to prove that human factors considerations have been met during product design and development. FDA takes these human factors requirements seriously, requiring that the manufacturer perform a systematic assessment of the intended user(s), how the device will be used, the environment in which it will be used, and existing use-related hazards.
This audio conference presentation reviews guidance documents issued by FDA regarding its human factors initiative. The speaker also presents several examples of a human factors engineering project, including templates that have been designed to assist in the process of usability testing in the medical industry.
