SAFETY FIRST: Our new IEC 62304 Advanced course for Software Engineers

Complying with regulatory requirements is a daily activity for software developers in the medical device industry. With the requirements of IEC 62304 on the life cycle for the development of the medical software and software within medical devices certain demands are placed upon development teams. But it does not only need to have a standard to minimize risk, it needs people who are specialists in software development and with a good knowledge of how to implement, maintain and use those international standards.

Imagine creating a state-of-the-art medical device e.g. a new pacemaker where the misinterpretation of requirements or lack of rigour in verification could lead to potentially fatal results. Obviously, any risk of a potential error needs to be eliminated.
