Great Partner Consulting Co., Ltd. GPTEK can assist you in determining what standards and collateral standards are required for testing and certifying your product in order to sell your medical device to global markets.
The 3rd Edition of IEC 60601-1 contains a shift in thinking from the 2nd Edition. There is more emphasis on the risk management file and process conforming to ISO 14971, as well as essential performance. As with any other standard change, failure to complete these new requirements in a timely manner could cause costly delays in getting your device to market. With the two editions of IEC 60601-1 still in use, it is often hard to determine which version should be used. F2 Labs can help.
