Comprehensive Guide to ISO 14971 Risk Management Including Corrosion Effects Testing Services

ISO 14971 is a widely recognized international standard for risk management in the context of medical devices, machinery, and other products that require safety and reliability assurance. This standard provides a framework for identifying, evaluating, and mitigating risks associated with product development, manufacturing, and use.

Relevant Standards

  • ISO 14971:2019 Medical devices - Application of risk management to medical devices

  • ASTM F2500-15 Standard Guide for Risk Management of Medical Devices

  • EN ISO 14971:2012 Medical devices - Application of risk management to medical devices (European standard)

  • TSE ISO 14971:2017 Medical devices - Application of risk management to medical devices (Turkish standard)

    • These standards are developed and maintained by international organizations such as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), and the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC).

    International and National Standards

    The application of ISO 14971 risk management principles is governed by national standards, which are adapted to specific regulatory requirements. For example:

  • In the European Union, the Medical Device Regulation (MDR) requires manufacturers to apply the principles outlined in ISO 14971.

  • In the United States, the FDAs Quality System Regulation (QSR) and the Guidance for Industry: QSR - Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) require manufacturers to implement a risk management system based on ISO 14971.

    • Standard Development Organizations

    Standard development organizations play a crucial role in creating and maintaining standards. Some of the prominent organizations involved in standard development include:

  • International Organization for Standardization (ISO)

  • American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)

  • European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC)

  • Turkish Standards Institution (TSE)

    • Evolution of Standards

    Standards evolve over time to reflect changing regulatory requirements, technological advancements, and industry best practices. Updates to standards ensure that they remain relevant and effective in ensuring product safety and reliability.

    Standard Numbers and Scope

    Some examples of standard numbers and their scope are:

  • ISO 14971:2019 Medical devices - Application of risk management to medical devices

    • Scope: This document applies to the application of risk management to medical devices.

  • ASTM F2500-15 Standard Guide for Risk Management of Medical Devices

    • Scope: This guide provides a framework for identifying, analyzing, evaluating, and mitigating risks associated with medical devices.
