VALIDATION AND ACCREDITATION OF IVD AND LABORATORY DEVELOPED TEST (LDT) IN THE NEW “REGULATION EU 2017/746” ERA
Over the last 10 years, mass spectrometry (MS) has become extremely popular in clinical chemistry laboratories. At the same time, there has been an evolution in regulations, standards and protocols for both validation and verification of analyses on this instrumentation (EMA, ISO, CLSI, etc.), up to the most recent European Regulation 2017/746 (IVDR). To efficiently integrate mass spectrometry in laboratory, a clinical chemist must therefore face new challenge related to the impact of the new European Regulation 2017/746 concerning the verification and validation of analyses. During the meeting, you will therefore acquire the skills to prepare
• Experimental designs to verify/validate an analysis in MS
• Dossiers for the national competent authority for Laboratory Developed Test (LDT) assay, in accordance with the requirements of the new European Directive IVDR 2017/746
• Dossiers for the accreditation of mass spectrometry In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) Kit.
The meeting aims at providing participants with a complete overview of procedures and experimental designs to prepare the documentation for the analysis accreditation process (IVD & LDT) and/or for the national competent authorities inspection (LDT).
