The Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA), in cooperation with the Chamber of Commerce in Jazan, is organizing a workshop entitled "Safe Use of Medical Devices within Health Care Facilities" at the headquarters of the Chamber tomorrow. Through this workshop, the SFDA seeks to promote the safe use of medical devices and supplies and clarify the complementary role between the National Center for Medical Devices and Supplies Reporting (NCMDR) and health care providers.
The workshop will cover several topics, including clarifying the tasks of the liaison officer and radiation protection officers, explaining the requirements of post-marketing control for health practitioners, outlining the requirements and mechanisms for evaluating the safe use of medical devices and supplies within health care facilities, discussing the mechanism for responding to weekly reports of safety warnings regarding medical devices and supplies, and addressing inquiries and observations from health care providers.
In cooperation with the Jeddah Chamber of Commerce, the SFDA will hold a workshop titled "Requirements and Conditions for the Discharge of Organic Food Products" at the Chamber's headquarters on Tuesday, August 20, 2024. This workshop targets importers of organic food products to clarify the latest developments related to the updated conditions.
The workshop will include a review of the document outlining the requirements and conditions for the clearance of organic food products, a detailed explanation of the certificates required for clearance, a review of models for these certificates, and answers to importers' inquiries, as well as solutions to the challenges they face.
In the same context, the SFDA will present a number of workshops this month via video communication, under the titles "Requirements for the Circulation of Ready-to-Eat Foods and Food Catering Requirements," "Mechanism for Studying Applications for Permits to Import Medical Imaging Materials," and "Requirements for Post-Market Control of Medical Devices and Supplies."
