ISO 14971:2019 Medical devices — Application of risk management to medical devices

Updated

ISO 14971 is the international standard for risk management of medical devices, including software, across the whole life cycle from design to post-market use.

Manufacturers identify hazards, estimate and control risks and judge whether the remaining risk is acceptable; IEC 62304 and EU MDR conformity rely on it.
