Description

In this episode of Device and Conquer, we unpack the differences between the FDA’s inspection style and the EU’s notified body-driven approach.

From classification rules and audit methodologies (QSR, ISO 13485, MDSAP) to unannounced FDA inspections versus Europe’s annual surveillance audits, we dig into what medical device companies really need to know before entering either market.
Whether you’re a startup navigating your first clearance or a seasoned RA/QA pro, this is your crash course on how regulators (and auditors) think—and why it matters for your compliance strategy.
