Does anyone know if a comprehensive document exists anywhere that shows which Essential Requirement of the Medical Device Directive is covered by which Harmonised Standard?
I know that Europa has full list of standards that can be used to demonstrate compliance with the MDD, but the appear only in Standard Number order.

Thanks
James

I think if you dig deeper, you can get a list with their names. Each standard has an annex in the back that cross-references the clauses or subclauses with the essential requirements. However, the standards you use, depend on your product classification and type.

Hope this helps and good luck.

See ISO 16142:2006 Medical devices -- Guidance on the selection of standards in support of recognized essential principles of safety and performance of medical devices
