Yes. When seeking a full IEC 60601-1 compliance, your risk management file is evaluated, of which includes ISO 14971 standard.
However, risk management evaluation is not mandatory for manufacturers requesting pre-compliance services, for customers only seeking specific/isolated testing or excluded entirely, such as in the case of applying for a CB test certificate on a component power supply.
Take advantage of the
cTUVus
(North America),
INMETRO
(Brazil) and
CB Schemes
(parts of Europe and Asia) to eliminate duplicated testing processes when pursuing multiple markets.
