The most crucial subject for the RA professional to discuss in a training session on new device indications for consumer disposable products is labeling. Labeling encompasses the information provided to the user regarding the safe and effective use of the product, including indications for use, contraindications, warnings, and instructions. Proper labeling ensures that consumers understand how to use the product correctly, which is essential for safety and compliance with regulatory standards.

In the context of consumer disposable products, which often require clear and straightforward instructions for immediate use, the labeling must convey necessary information in a manner that is easy to comprehend. This is critical to avoid misuse and to enhance user safety.

While risk management processes and safety-related reporting are important elements of regulatory affairs, they are often more technical and don’t have the same immediate impact on the consumer’s understanding of the product's indications as labeling does. Similarly, a regulatory application summary may be valuable for internal discussions but does not directly influence the end-user experience in the same way that effective labeling does.
