51. When And How To Use A UFMEA During Device Design 12/11/2024

    When and how might using a uFMEA (Use Failure Mode Effects Analysis) tool benefit biopharma companies addressing regulatory expectations for analyses of risk and/or human factors? In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event Human Factors Risk Analysis: Leveraging URRA And UFMEA Tools, Natalie, Abts, head of human factors engineering at Genentech, and Shannon Hoste, chief scientific officer at Pathway for Patient Health, discuss potential differences in the contexts, purposes, and degrees of detail in information presented for review.

52. Why Start A URRA Early In Combination Product Design? 12/11/2024

    Both a URRA (Use-Related Risk Analysis) and IFU (Instructions for Use) can help to mitigate the risk of user misuse of a combination product. In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event Human Factors Risk Analysis: Leveraging URRA And UFMEA Tools, Shannon Hoste, chief scientific officer at Pathway for Patient Health, offers rationale for starting and conducting the URRA ahead of developing or finalizing IFU.

53. URRA And UFMEA: Together Or Separate For Combination Products? 12/11/2024

    Both uFMEA (Use Failure Mode Effects Analysis) and URRA (Use-Related Risk Analysis) tools are available during combination product development for conducting risk assessments related to human factors. In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event Human Factors Risk Analysis: Leveraging URRA And UFMEA Tools, Natalie, Abts, head of human factors engineering at Genentech, and Shannon Hoste, chief scientific officer at Pathway for Patient Health, discuss scenarios in which a uFMEA might be used to inform a URRA regulatory submission.

54. Balancing User-Related Risk Assessments With Use-Enabling Device Enhancements 12/11/2024

    Can a diligent focus on patient safety during combination product development inadvertently lead to missed opportunities for device use enhancements? In this segment of the Drug Delivery Leader Live event Human Factors Risk Analysis: Leveraging URRA And UFMEA Tools, Natalie, Abts, head of human factors engineering at Genentech, discusses ways to keep the organization focused on developing quality products that enhance user adoptability while also mitigating user-related harm.
