Regulatory Standards

The Standards & Norms that matter for medical devices

From ISO 13485 to IEC 62304, these standards define what it takes to bring a safe medical device to market. We help you understand them, implement them, and pass your audit.

ISO 13485
ISO 14971
IEC 62304
IEC 62366
ISO 10993

These are the five core standards every medical device manufacturer needs to understand, regardless of target market. They are universally recognized across EU, UK, USA, Australia, New Zealand, and Asia, and form the backbone of any successful regulatory submission.

ISO 13485

Quality Management System

QMS · Certification · Audit

The foundation for everything. ISO 13485 defines how a Quality Management System must be built for medical device companies. Without certification, you cannot sell in most markets.

ISO 14971

Risk Management

Risk · Safety · Hazard Analysis

Before any device reaches the market, its risks must be systematically identified, evaluated, and controlled. ISO 14971 is the global standard for doing this right.

IEC 62304

Medical Device Software

SaMD · Software Lifecycle · Classification

If your product includes software, or is software, IEC 62304 defines the lifecycle processes required for safe development, maintenance, and risk management of medical device software.

IEC 62366

Usability Engineering

Usability · Human Factors · UX

Incorrect use is one of the most common causes of medical device incidents. IEC 62366 ensures your device can be used safely and effectively, even under stress or by untrained users.

ISO 10993

Biocompatibility

Biocompatibility · Testing · Materials

Every device that contacts the human body, skin, blood, or tissue, must prove it causes no harmful reactions. ISO 10993 defines which tests are required and how to interpret them.
