Medical Device Sprint Post-Mortem

Medical device development requires rigorous documentation, design control compliance, and continuous improvement across both product and regulatory strategies. This Medical Device Sprint Post-Mortem template is built specifically for med-tech product teams, quality assurance professionals, and regulatory affairs specialists who need to capture lessons learned while maintaining compliance with FDA 21 CFR Part 820 and ISO 13485 standards.

Whether you're developing Class I, II, or III medical devices, each sprint retrospective is an opportunity to evaluate design control effectiveness, review usability testing outcomes, assess risk management activities, and refine your regulatory submission strategy. This template captures structured feedback across engineering, quality, regulatory, and clinical teams, helping you identify process improvements while maintaining the audit trail required for design history files.

Paperform makes it simple to create professional, branded retrospectives that your entire cross-functional team can complete efficiently. Use conditional logic to tailor questions based on sprint phase (design, verification, validation, or transfer to manufacturing), and leverage calculation fields to automatically score process effectiveness across different quality system elements.

With Stepper integration, you can automatically route post-mortem insights to the right stakeholders—send design control findings to your quality management system, flag regulatory risks for immediate review, and create action items in your project management tools. Connect submissions to Jira, Monday.com, or Notion to ensure lessons learned translate into tangible process improvements for your next sprint.

For teams managing multiple device projects or working across different regulatory pathways (510(k), PMA, or CE marking), Paperform's flexible platform lets you create variants of this template while maintaining consistent reporting standards. The result is faster time-to-market, stronger design control compliance, and continuous improvement embedded into your product development culture.
