Design History File (DHF) remediation is rarely planned — yet it is a recurring challenge for many medical device manufacturers, especially during audits, inspections, acquisitions, or regulatory framework changes.

In this podcast episode, we provide a structured and practical discussion on:

  • The definition and purpose of a DHF
  • Key differences between FDA QMSR and ISO 13485 requirements
  • How the DHF concept is addressed within ISO 13485
  • When DHF remediation becomes unavoidable
  • Typical causes of remediation, including accumulated DHF debt
  • How to remediate a DHF without creating new compliance risks
  • Common pitfalls and practices to avoid
  • How to define a realistic and defensible remediation strategy
  • Regulatory communication considerations with:
    • National Competent Authorities
    • Notified Bodies

This episode is based on an article developed by Wega Informatik AG and is intended to help MedTech professionals approach DHF remediation in a controlled, transparent, and compliant way.

If you are responsible for design controls, quality systems, or regulatory compliance, this episode will help you avoid costly mistakes and build confidence in your remediation approach.
