Talk:IEC 62304

history
What events led to the IEC 62304 standard being developed? (The Therac-25 article says the IEC 62304 standard was created "In response to incidents like those associated with Therac-25". What incidents is that alluding to?)

Are there any previous standards for medical software that the IEC 62304 obsoletes or complements? --DavidCary (talk) 17:32, 17 August 2015 (UTC)


 * The closest predecessors were IEC60601-1-4 and [ISO/IEC_12207]
 * " What incidents is that alluding to?)" to the ones described in the article itself MarmotteiNoZ 13:56, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

Documentation
The part where it says which documentation is needed is not accurate enough. It looks like class B and C need exactly the same. It is better explained on the following blog. https://www.mddionline.com/developing-medical-device-software-iec-62304
