Good point. I did neglect to say that in our Hazard Analysis, we do identify standards to which the system will be designed to address the hazards. For example, we will "design the system to comply with IEC 60601-1 for electrical safety."
In your examples (user uses device after expiration, improper disposal), those *are* failures which we would cover in a Use FMEA.
