EN ISO 14971:2019/A11:2021 Medical devices – Application of risk management to medical devices
This harmonized standard under EU MDR prescribes systematic risk management processes that manufacturers must implement throughout the medical device lifecycle. The document specifies methodologies for hazard identification, risk analysis, risk evaluation, and implementation of risk control measures with verification and validation. Manufacturers should establish documented risk management files demonstrating that identified hazards have been adequately controlled and that residual risks are acceptable. The standard requires post-market surveillance planning to monitor device performance and identify emerging safety concerns. Risk management must be proportionate to the device's intended use and classification. This systematic approach serves as the foundational framework for ensuring both safety and effectiveness of medical devices. The amendment was published in the EU Official Journal via Decision 2022/757.

JIS T 62366-1:2022 Medical devices - Application of usability engineering to medical devices - Part 1: Design and evaluation (equivalent to IEC 62366-1:2015+Amd.1:2020)
This JIS standard specifies usability engineering processes for analyzing, specifying, developing, and evaluating safety-related human factors in medical devices, corresponding to IEC 62366-1:2015+Amendment 1:2020. The document establishes requirements for identifying and mitigating use errors that could result in harm to patients or operators, integrating human factors engineering into the device development lifecycle. Manufacturers must characterize the intended use environment, identify hazards associated with user interactions, develop mitigations through design and training, and conduct usability validation studies. The standard operates in conjunction with JIS T 14971 (risk management), as use-related risks must be identified and controlled through systematic usability engineering. The processes defined ensure that medical device designs accommodate user capabilities, limitations, and context of use to prevent foreseeable misuse. By systematically applying usability engineering principles, manufacturers reduce the likelihood of use errors and associated patient harm throughout the device lifecycle.

EN ISO 13485:2016/A11:2021 Medical devices – Quality management systems – Requirements for regulatory purposes
This harmonized standard under EU MDR establishes comprehensive requirements for quality management systems in medical device manufacturing and distribution. Manufacturers should implement systematic quality procedures covering the entire device lifecycle, from design and development through production, installation, and post-market surveillance activities. The standard requires organizations to establish documented procedures, maintain traceability, implement change controls, and conduct management review to demonstrate regulatory compliance. Risk-based approaches must be applied to manufacturing processes, supplier management, and complaint handling. The requirements apply to all medical device manufacturers seeking CE marking in the European Union. This amendment incorporates multiple corrigenda and was published in the EU Official Journal via Decision 2022/6.

IoT Non-Technical Supporting Capability Core Baseline
Non-technical supporting capabilities are actions a manufacturer or third-party organization performs in support of the cybersecurity of an IoT device. This publication defines an Internet of Things (IoT) device manufacturers’ non-technical supporting capability core baseline, which is a set of non-technical supporting capabilities generally needed from manufacturers or other third parties to support common cybersecurity controls that protect an organization’s devices as well as device data, systems, and ecosystems. The purpose of this publication is to provide organizations a starting point to use in identifying the non-technical supporting capabilities needed in relation to IoT devices they will manufacture, integrate, or acquire. This publication is intended to be used in conjunction with NISTIR 8259, Foundational Cybersecurity Activities for IoT Device Manufacturers and NISTIR 8259A, IoT Device Cybersecurity Capability Core Baseline.
