    QSR Author Kim Trautman Predicts What A Mash-Up Of FDA's Quality System Regulation And ISO 13485 Might Look Like

    By Shawn M. Schmitt 17 Aug 2018

    US FDA will face high hurdles as it works to write a new rule that would merge the agency's Quality System Regulation with international quality systems standard ISO 13485. That's according to Kim Trautman, a longtime industry insider who wrote the QSR in the early to mid-1990s. "It’s a clear heavy lift from a regulatory policy perspective" that could take as long as five years to complete, she says. In the meantime, Trautman offers some insight into what device-makers might see in a new hybrid quality systems regulation from FDA. She addresses everything from corrective and preventive action (CAPA) to labeling, and complaint handling to risk management – and more.

    The agency has responded to a draft diagnostics reform bill in Congress with proposed reforms that diverge some ways from the proposed legislation, but stick with the underlying goal of completely remaking how lab tests, including test kits and lab-developed tests, are regulated. The agency has put forward a proposal to establish a pre-certification process for test developers, divide most tests into high- or low-risk categories (but exempt many from pre-market review) and remove the concept of substantial equivalence.
