The focus is not limited to formal documentation, but in particular on the practical implementation in day-to-day operations.<\/p>\n<p>Audits in MedTech typically cover the following aspects:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Assessment of process compliance<\/li>\n<li>Verification of risk control<\/li>\n<li>Effectiveness of CAPA measures<\/li>\n<li>Adequacy of management review<\/li>\n<li>Traceability of regulatory decisions<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A risk-based approach plays a central role.
