Medical device software is software that is intended to be used, alone or in combination, for a purpose as specified in the definition of a “medical device” in the MDR or IVDR, regardless of whether the software is independent (standalone software) or driving or influencing the use of a device (embedded software as part of a medical device). The software has to be designed to ensure reliability and performance according to their intended use.

The establishment of an interactive risk management process across the product lifecycle is very essential for every manufacturer of medical device software in order to eliminate risks or minimize them as much as possible. Thereby, it is important to take applicable standards into account and consider various risk aspects, such as effects of software errors, negative interactions, aspects of the IT environment and IT security, safety-relevant functions and processes or verification- und validation steps.

In this seminar, you will learn the basic requirements for risk analysis of medical device software according to the applicable standards and you will be able to carry out a risk analysis and document the results properly. You will be able to assess the risks in your software and create a risk management report based on this.
