Medical devices - Quality management systems - Requirements for regulatory purposes (ISO 13485:2003)
ISO 13485:2003 specifies requirements for a quality management system where an organization needs to demonstrate its ability to provide medical devices and related services that consistently meet customer requirements and regulatory requirements applicable to medical devices and related services.
The primary objective of ISO 13485:2003 is to facilitate harmonized medical device regulatory requirements for quality management systems. As a result, it includes some particular requirements for medical devices and excludes some of the requirements of ISO 9001 that are not appropriate as regulatory requirements. Because of these exclusions, organizations whose quality management systems conform to this International Standard cannot claim conformity to ISO 9001 unless their quality management systems conform to all the requirements of ISO 9001.
All requirements of ISO 13485:2003 are specific to organizations providing medical devices, regardless of the type or size of the organization.
If regulatory requirements permit exclusions of design and development controls, this can be used as a justification for their exclusion from the quality management system. These regulations can provide alternative arrangements that are to be addressed in the quality management system. It is the responsibility of the organization to ensure that claims of conformity with ISO 13485:2003 reflect exclusion of design and development controls.
If any requirement(s) in Clause 7 of ISO 13485:2003 is(are) not applicable due to the nature of the medical device(s) for which the quality management system is applied, the organization does not need to include such a requirement(s) in its quality management system.
The processes required by ISO 13485:2003, which are applicable to the medical device(s), but which are not performed by the organization, are the responsibility of the organization and are accounted for in the organization's quality management system.
Medizinprodukte - Qualitätsmanagementsysteme - Anforderungen für regulatorische Zwecke (ISO 13485:2003)
Diese Internationale Norm legt Anforderungen an ein Qualitätsmanagementsystem fest, wenn eine Organisation ihre Fähigkeit zur Bereitstellung von Medizinprodukten und zugehörigen Dienstleistungen darzulegen hat, die ständig die Anforderungen der Kunden und die für Medizinprodukte und zugehörige Dienstleistungen zutreffenden gesetzlichen Anforderungen erfüllen.
Das primäre Ziel dieser Internationalen Norm ist die Ermöglichung der Harmonisierung der für Medizinprodukte zutreffenden gesetzlichen Anforderungen an Qualitätsmanagementsysteme. Im Ergebnis dessen enthält sie einige besondere Anforderungen an Medizinprodukte und schließt einige Anforderungen von ISO 9001 aus, die nicht als Anforderungen für gesetzliche Zwecke geeignet sind. Wegen dieser Ausschlüsse können Organisationen, deren Qualitätsmanagementsysteme dieser Internationalen Norm entsprechen, keine Konformität mit ISO 9001 beanspruchen, außer wenn ihr Qualitätsmanagementsystem mit allen Anforderungen von ISO 9001 konform ist (siehe Anhang B).
Dispositifs médicaux - Systèmes de management de la qualité - Exigences à des fins réglementaires (ISO 13485:2003)
L'ISO 13485:2003 énonce les exigences relatives au système de management de la qualité lorsqu'un organisme doit démontrer son aptitude à fournir régulièrement des dispositifs médicaux et des services associés conformes aux exigences des clients et aux exigences réglementaires applicables aux dispositifs médicaux et aux services associés.
Le principal objectif de l'ISO 13485:2003 est de faciliter la mise en oeuvre d'exigences réglementaires harmonisées en matière de dispositifs médicaux, dans le cadre des systèmes de management de la qualité. Par conséquent, elle comprend certaines exigences particulières concernant les dispositifs médicaux, mais certaines exigences de l'ISO 9001, non appropriées en tant qu'exigences réglementaires, en sont exclues. Du fait de ces exclusions, les organismes dont les systèmes de management de la qualité sont conformes à l'ISO 13485:2003 ne peuvent revendiquer la conformité à l'ISO 9001 que si leurs systèmes de management de la qualité sont conformes à l'ensemble des exigences de l'ISO 9001.
Toutes les exigences de l'ISO 13485:2003 sont spécifiques aux organismes fournissant des dispositifs médicaux, indépendamment du type ou de la taille de l'organisme.
Le fait que des exigences réglementaires autorisent l'exclusion des systèmes de contrôle de conception et de développement peut servir à justifier leur exclusion du système de management de la qualité. Ces réglementations peuvent prévoir d'autres dispositions qui doivent être appliquées dans le système de management de la qualité. Il incombe à l'organisme de s'assurer que ses demandes de conformité à l'ISO 13485:2003 correspondent à l'exclusion des systèmes de contrôle de conception et de développement.
Lorsqu'une ou plusieurs exigences définies à l'Article 7 de l'ISO 13485:2003 ne peuvent être appliquées en raison de la nature du ou des dispositifs médicaux auxquels s'applique le système de management de la qualité, l'organisme n'est pas tenu d'inclure cette (ces) exigence(s) dans son système de management de la qualité.
Les processus requis par l'ISO 13485:2003, qui sont applicables au(x) dispositif(s) médical (médicaux) mais non adoptés par l'organisme, relèvent de la responsabilité de ce dernier qui en tient compte dans son système de management de la qualité.
Medicinski pripomočki - Sistemi vodenja kakovosti - Zahteve za zakonodajne namene (ISO 13485:2003)
Standard ISO 13485 2003 določa zahteve za sisteme vodenja kakovosti v primerih, ko mora organizacija izkazati svojo zmožnost dobave medicinskih pripomočkov in povezanih storitev, ki dosledno izpolnjujejo zahteve strank ter zakonodajne zahteve, ki se uporabljajo za medicinske pripomočke in povezane storitve.
Glavni cilj standarda ISO 13485:2003 je omogočiti harmonizirane zakonodajne zahteve za medicinske pripomočke za sisteme vodenja kakovosti. Standard zato vključuje nekatere posebne zahteve za medicinske pripomočke in izključuje nekatere zahteve standarda ISO 9001, ki niso primerne kot zakonodajne zahteve. Organizacije, katerih sistemi vodenja kakovosti so skladni s tem mednarodnim standardom, se zaradi teh izključitev ne morejo sklicevati na skladnost s standardom ISO 9001, razen če so njihovi sistemi vodenja kakovosti skladni z vsemi zahtevami standarda ISO 9001.
Vse zahteve standarda ISO 13485:2003 veljajo za organizacije, ki dobavljajo medicinske pripomočke, ne glede na vrsto ali velikost organizacije.
Če zakonodajne zahteve omogočajo izključitve kontrol zasnove in razvoja, se lahko to uporabi kot utemeljitev za njihovo izključitev iz sistema vodenja kakovosti. Ti predpisi lahko zagotovijo nadomestne ureditve, ki se morajo obravnavati v sistemu vodenja kakovosti. Organizacija mora zagotoviti, da sklicevanje na skladnost s standardom ISO 13485:2003 odraža izključitev kontrol zasnove in razvoja.
Če se katera koli zahteva v točki 7 standarda ISO 13485:2003 ne uporablja zaradi narave medicinskega pripomočka, za katerega se sistem vodenja kakovosti uporablja, organizaciji take zahteve ni treba vključiti v svoj sistem vodenja kakovosti.
Postopki, ki jih standard ISO 13485:2003 zahteva in ki se uporabljajo za medicinske pripomočke, vendar jih organizacija ne izvaja, so odgovornost organizacije in so opisani v sistemu vodenja kakovosti organizacije.

Foreword
The text of the International Standard ISO 13485:2003 has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC
210 "Quality management and corresponding general aspects for medical devices, Working Group 1". The
transposition into a European Standard has been managed by the CEN-CENELEC Management Centre
(CCMC) with the assistance of the CEN-CENELEC Technical Committee 3 "Quality Management and
corresponding general aspects for medical devices".
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical
text or by endorsement, at the latest by August 2012, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at
the latest by August 2012.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. CEN [and/or CENELEC] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports quality system requirements of EU Medical Devices
Directives. Compliance with EN ISO 13485 does not provide a presumption of conformity with all the aspects
of the quality systems of the Medical Devices Directives. It is important that the organization and the Notified
Body identify the regulatory requirements that are not covered by the standard. The Annexes Z of this
standard shall be used for this purpose, describing the relationship between this European Standard and the
conformity assessment requirements of the Medical Devices Directives.
This document supersedes EN ISO 13485:2003.
NOTE The following is specifically intended for organizations that need to comply with one or more of the European
Directives for medical devices (90/385/EEC, 93/42/EEC and 98/79/EC) in order to affix CE marking on their products and
for other parties involved in that process whilst other Directives might also require a CE marking.
1)
Where organizations wish to implement quality systems in conformance with Directives 90/385/EEC,
93/42/EEC and 98/79/EC, they may use EN ISO 13485:2012. EN ISO 13485:2012 provides a framework to
enable a manufacturer to meet some of the quality system requirements for an EC Declaration of Conformity
(Annex 2 and Annex 5 of Directive 90/385/EEC; Annex II, V and VI of Directive 93/42/EEC; or Annex III, IV
and VII of Directive 98/79/EC).
In seeking compliance with the quality systems requirements of the Medical Devices Directives, organizations
may exclude specific requirements from EN ISO 13485. The table below shows the exclusions that are
permitted.
1)
The European Directives use the term "quality system" whereas EN ISO 13485 uses the term "quality management
system" in accordance with ISO terminology.
Directive 90/385/EEC Directive 93/42/EEC Directive 98/79/EC
For Annex 2, no exclusions are For Annex II, no exclusions are For Annex III and IV, no
permitted permitted exclusions are permitted
For Annex 5, exclusion of 7.3 of For Annex V, exclusion of 7.3 For Annex VII, exclusion of 7.3
EN ISO 13485 is permitted from EN ISO 13485 is permitted from EN ISO 13485 is permitted
For Annex VI, exclusion of 7.3,
7.5.1 and 7.5.2 from EN ISO
13485 are permitted
It should be noted that where the exclusions described in 1.2 of EN ISO 13485:2012 are exceeded, conformity
to EN ISO 13485:2012 shall not be claimed.
The requirements in ISO 13485:2003 describe a systematic approach, within which manufacturers can
identify, review and decide on the appropriate manner to incorporate regulatory requirements, other
standards, and regulatory guidance documents into their quality management system. In this context, EN ISO
13485 requires the manufacturer to provide quality management system elements including: necessary
resources, infrastructure and competent personnel; documentation and records for the operation of the quality
management system; systems of internal audit and management review; systems to address nonconformity,
corrective action and preventive action.
It should be noted that EN ISO 13485:2012 is a quality management system for medical devices specifically
for regulatory purposes. It is based on EN ISO 9001:2000 but in particular the requirements for “customer
satisfaction” and “continual improvement” have been modified. Therefore, while EN ISO 13485:2012 has the
same format as EN ISO 9001:2000 and most of the same requirements, compliance with EN ISO 13485:2012
does not provide conformity with EN ISO 9001:2000.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following
countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech
Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,
Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,
Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom.
Endorsement notice
The text of ISO 13485:2003 has been approved by CEN as a EN ISO 13485:2012 without any modification.
Annex ZA
(informative)
Relationship between this European Standard and the Conformity Assessment
Requirements of EU Directive 90/385/EEC
ZA.1 General
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission
and the European Free Trade Association to provide a means by which a manufacturer may demonstrate
conformity, and by which the Notified Body may assess the manufacturer's conformity, with the requirements
of Directive 90/385/EEC on active implantable medical devices.
Within the limits of the scope of this standard (Clause 1 of EN ISO 13485:2012), compliance with the
normative clauses of this standard according to the qualifying remarks presented in Tables ZA.1 and ZA.2
2)
confers presumption of conformity with the requirements on a manufacturer’s quality system as given in
Annexes 2 and 5 of that Directive and associated EFTA regulations, once this standard is cited in the Official
Journal of the European Union under that Directive and has been implemented as a national standard in at
least one Member State. This Annex ZA explains to which requirements, under which conditions and to what
extent presumption of conformity can be claimed.
The Conformity Assessment Annexes 2 and 5 of the Directive include description of the regulatory process
and activities undertaken by the Notified Body, which both are outside of the scope of EN ISO 13485 and
therefore not covered by this standard. Furthermore, the requirements of the Directive refer to an application
to a Notified Body, not to the requirement for a quality system as such. Accordingly, coverage of legal
requirements can only be presumed to the extent listed in Tables ZA.1 and ZA.2 if an application to a Notified
Body:
• contains the necessary quality system documentation;
• has been reviewed and approved by a Notified Body,
and the undertakings listed in the application are correctly executed by the manufacturer.
ZA.2 Relationship with Annex 2 of Directive 90/385/EEC
Compliance with EN ISO 13485 does not provide presumption of conformity with all the aspects of Annex 2,
as outlined in Table ZA.1. Therefore, a manufacturer or a Notified Body has to take additional provisions to
ensure conformity, and claim or certify conformance, with Annex 2 of this Directive. The legal requirements
must be examined, applied and verified one by one and the solutions adopted must become part of the quality
system in the meaning of the Directive.
2)
This annex uses the term "quality system" as used in the Directive whereas EN ISO 13485 uses the term "quality
management system" in accordance with ISO terminology.
