I think you could probably go back and track the stages of grief, probably that is what I went through. But I think if you do it right, you end up at acceptance. And that's where I ended up. And that's not to say that I've fully accepted the idea that the golden toad is extinct. Personally, I do still hold out hope that it could still be out there in those forests." - Trevor Ritland This conversation is with Trevor Ritland, who—along with his twin brother Kyle—authored The Golden Toad . The book chronicles their remarkable journey into Costa Rica’s cloud forest, once home to hundreds of brilliant golden toads that would emerge for just a few weeks each year—until, one day, they vanished without a trace. What began as a search for a lost species soon became something much more profound: a confrontation with ecological grief, a meditation on hope, and a powerful call to protect the natural world while we still can.

In this episode of the RAQA Café podcast, our host explores the rapidly expanding field of human factors testing with two renowned experts—Dr. Caoimhe Duffy (Assistant Professor, Anesthesiology and Critical Care) from the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania and Dr. Victoria Barnosky (Clinical Outcomes Consultant) from SUAZIO, now part of NAMSA. Tune in to learn about the vital importance and the intricate challenges involved in assessing how users interact with medical devices. _“We all know that processes or workflows we’re doing here in the US are very different in other areas. There might be different ways that users are using devices in certain countries…and so that’s one of those challenges of performing human factor testing in a real-world environment is being able to prove that these users are a subset or a simulation of what you would be seeing in real life.”_ – Dr. Victoria Barnosky Key Discussion Topics: The future of human factors testing How to identify and analyze use risks Standardization vs. unique device requirements Disconnect between manufacturers and users…

In this episode of the RAQA Café Podcast, our host engages with Warren Jameson (NAMSA’s Sr. Manager, Regulatory & Quality) and Christele Perrin-East (NAMSA’s Sr. Regulatory Consultant, IVD), to explore the extension of the EU IVDR deadline and its implications for the industry.

The discussion also reflects on lessons learned from the EU MDR and examines how the IVDR extension might impact both new product registrations and updates to existing products previously regulated by the EU IVDD. “I think manufacturers have to be very careful when they look at the dates. It's not actually that far, because if you work backwards, like 2025 is actually. If you can't 12 or 18 months period to get a technical file reviewed, you have to send your technical file like almost right now.” -Christelle Perrin-East, Sr. Regulatory Consultant Key Discussion Topics: The IVDR Extension Lessons from the MDR Negative Impact of the IVDR Extension Impact on Existing Products Covered by the IVDD Links: Blog – Navigating the Transition: Understanding the EU’s Proposed Amendments to IVDR Blog – MDCG 2022-11Rev 1: Urgency for MDR and IVDR Compliance RAQA Café Podcast – The EU IVDR: What Do You Need to Know?…

What is the FDA’s Refuse to Accept Policy? In this second episode of NAMSA's RAQA Café Podcast, we are joined by NAMSA’s Principal Product Development Strategist, Angela Mallery, to examine the procedures and criteria FDA use in assessing whether a premarket notification 510(k) submission meets a minimum threshold of acceptability, and if it should be accepted for substantive review. Also discussed during this podcast is FDA’s voluntary eSTAR (electronic Submission Template and Resource) program, which aligns with FDA’s internal review template and integration of guidance expectations. “When you are doing your 510(k), you should set up your expectations with management far, far ahead so they don’t have the expectation that 90 days later they are going to be able to sell the product. Setting these expectations is one of the things the regulatory person should do… The whole process generally takes four to six months.” – Angela Mallery Discussion topics include: FDA Refusal to Accept (RTA) screening process 510k submissions RTA Checklist (Traditional 510k, Abbreviated 510k, Special 510k) FDA eSTAR Program, a voluntary electronic submission template…
