FDA Final Rule: Medical Device Quality System Regulation Amendments
For many years the rest of the world has been utilizing the ISO 13485 Medical Device Quality Management System standard as a means for companies to show compliance to regulatory requirements and to ensure safe and effective products are placed on the market.
The US FDA is now revising its medical device Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP) requirements as set forth in the QSR, codified in part 820 (21 CFR part 820). FDA is accomplishing this primarily by incorporating by reference the 2016 edition of ISO 13485. Through this rulemaking, FDA is harmonizing quality management system requirements for medical devices with requirements used by other regulatory authorities.

It’s that time of the year again – Mardi Gras! That means we’re obligated to provide a Cajun Recruiter approved king cake recipe to everyone, so y’all don’t miss out on the fun!
King cakes are delicious, flaky pastries topped with icing and sprinkles that include a plastic baby hidden somewhere in the cake. The person who gets the slice that contains the baby is known as the king, hence the name. They are tasked with the responsibility of bringing a king cake to the next event, and the tradition continues thereon until the end of Mardi Gras (or until someone forgets you owe them a cake).
If you don’t feel like baking your own, tons of our local bakeries deliver in the U.S. and some even deliver internationally!
Reach out to us if you need help placing an order or deciding which cake to try –
