Hello,
IEC 82304-1:2016 - Health Software - Part 1: General requirements for product safety
IEC 82304-1:2016 applies to the safety and security of health software products designed to operate on general computing platforms and intended to be placed on the market without dedicated hardware, and its primary focus is on the requirements for manufacturers. It covers the entire lifecycle including design, development, validation, installation, maintenance, and disposal of health software products.
This standard seems to be strongly related to medical software, but for some reason I have never found any medical software manufacturer to claim compliance with it (not that I have much experience, having worked with 3 different companies only). I am very surprised, and would like to understand why.
Maybe because I work in Europe and MDD Essential Requirements can be covered without being compliant to this standard? Just guessing...
