I currently have IEC 62304:2006 plus IEC 62304:AMD1 and wondering if I need to purchase IEC 62304:2015 at all given it's not cheap. Therefore would anyone know if 62304:2015 has anything additional/different compared to 62304:2006 + 62304:AMD1?

Thanks in advance.

Probably the biggest single change is the addition of how to handle legacy software.

Many of the changes are just wording tweaks but there are a lot of other changes that are more substantial but far too detailed to list.

If I recall, you may be able to buy a copy of just the changes at less cost.

There is actually no "IEC 62304:2015" as such; only IEC 62304:2006/Amd1:2015. You can buy a consolidated version though, which is ridiculously expensive, and that's probably what you were referring to. But it's not a new standard and doesn't have any content beyond Amd1.

Thanks for the feedback. I happen to have AMD1 so I guess I should be good then.

Thanks again.
