ISO 14971 Risk Management Process Compliance Testing

ISO 14971 Risk Management Process Compliance Testing

The ISO 14971:2016 standard defines a process for managing risks associated with medical devices. Compliance with this international standard is essential for manufacturers, ensuring that the benefits of the device outweigh its potential risks. This service provides comprehensive testing and certification to ensure compliance with all aspects of the ISO 14971 risk management process.

The ISO 14971 standard requires a structured approach to identifying, analyzing, evaluating, controlling, and monitoring risks associated with medical devices. Our testing aligns with this framework by ensuring that each phase is thoroughly addressed:

  • Identification of the intended purposes and intended uses
  • Identification of all relevant risks
  • Risk analysis including risk estimation and risk evaluation
  • Decisions on whether further actions are necessary to control or eliminate identified risks
  • Implementation of measures to control or eliminate identified risks
  • Ongoing monitoring and review of the risk management file and its associated records

The process encompasses a series of steps that must be meticulously followed, from initial hazard identification to post-market surveillance. Our laboratory ensures that every stage is rigorously tested according to ISO 14971 guidelines.

Our services include:

  • Pre-clinical and clinical data analysis
  • Risk assessment documentation review
  • Device risk analysis using real-world scenarios
  • Validation of control measures effectiveness
  • Evaluation of post-market surveillance reports
  • Continuous improvement recommendations based on testing outcomes

By providing these services, we ensure that medical devices meet stringent safety and efficacy standards set by regulatory bodies worldwide. This not only enhances patient safety but also supports the manufacturer's compliance with international regulations.
