Charlie discusses the "lifecycle approach" to medical device packaging. Some medical device manufacturers do not continue to watch the arc of their sterile packaging validation plan and failures, therefore, happen as a result. Validation is a living process that needs constant monitoring at all levels to thwart potential packaging failures that could result in a sterility loss of the device. Also on this episode guest Rod Jennings a nuclear power plant field engineer discusses human systems like checklists and acronyms. These systems help guide critical process to better control expected outcomes.
