This webinar bundle includes our recall procedure for compliance with ISO 13485:2016, Clause 8.3.3, US FDA, Health Canada, and EU MDR / IVDR.
The recall procedure is now in its fifth draft of the procedure. The recall procedure meets the requirements for clause 8.3.3 of ISO 13485:2016 and 21 CFR 806 for conducting corrections and removals of products. This updated procedure also meets the requirements for an advisory notices procedure. Matthew Walker updated the procedure to include references to the applicable ISO 13485:2016 clauses, and he added color-coding with symbols to auditors identifying where the requirements for each ISO 13485 requirement are found. The procedure also explains where the requirements for monitoring and measurement of processes can be found for each process.

Hello, I assume the SYS-020 Recall procedure is geared toward manufacturers. Do you have one geared toward importers?
Hi Jeff,
Sorry, but we do not have one for importers. In fact, you should not be reporting recalls to the FDA. That is the responsibility of the manufacturer. The importer is responsible for keeping distribution records and assisting the manufacturer with execution of a recall. The manufacturer might even conduct a “mock recall” to verify that the importer has the ability to quickly identify who will need recall notification and what addresses the notifications must be sent to. The ability to generate a list of names and addresses that is in a format that can be used for mail merge is essential. However, there is no requirement for importers to have a recall procedure.
