Implementing ISO 13485:2016
Overview of Changes

Current State:
 ISO 13485:2003 addresses general quality system
requirements for medical device manufacturers
 Regulatory bodies assign criteria for meeting these
quality system requirements
 Regulatory bodies establish additional requirements
specific to device safety and functionality that are not
addressed by ISO 13485:2003
Implementing ISO 13485:2016
Overview of Changes

Current State:
 ISO 13485:2003 contains 20 clauses that require
“documented procedures” to address QMS processes
such as document control, design control, or CAPA.
 ISO 13485:2003 has 10 additional clauses that require
“documented requirements “ for processes such as
maintenance or rework. These are usually documented as
work instructions.
Implementing ISO 13485:2016
Overview of Changes

Current State:
 FDA 21CFR part 820 requires an additional 12 procedures
addressing QMS processes such as calibration, labeling or
statistical techniques.
 FDA 21CFR part 820 also contains requirements for
maintaining quality records including design history files,
master device records, device history records and
complaint files.
Implementing ISO 13485:2016
Overview of Changes

New State:
 ISO 13485:2016 now requires 26 procedures including the
original 20 procedures from ISO 13485:2003 and 6 new
procedures already required by regulatory agencies.
 ISO 13485:2016 now contains requirements for
maintaining design history files, medical device records,
device history records, and complaint files.
Implementing ISO 13485:2016
Overview of Changes

New State:
 The new procedures address management review,
competency and training, calibration, rework, complaint
handling and regulatory reporting.
 There are 6 additional procedures still required by the
FDA that are not required by ISO 13485:2016: process
control, final acceptance, labeling, distribution, statistical
techniques.
