About this change

Following the publication of the Medical Devices Regulation (EU 2017/745) in May 2017 and evidence of the need for clinical risk assessment of medical devices using software, a decision has been made to extend the scope of the standard to now include medical devices. Previously medical devices have been excluded from the scope of the Clinical Safety Standards.
