Looking for opinions on this question:
I have a prototype where all the intended use is provided via an approved mechanical device (no electronics). We've added electronics to the device to capture usage data for a clinical study. The electronics do not contribute to the intended use, and do not affect the clinical performance of the device.
We are reviewing 60601-1 to ensure the device is safe to use, and I'm wondering if, according to the standard, it would be considered to have essential performance?
I'm inclined to say no, but looking for your thoughts.
Thanks!
