Software problem resolution and change control processes are crucial for the performance, safety, and regulatory clearance of a medical device. Software changes are frequent throughout the whole life cycle of a product; therefore, iterative analysis and risk assessment are necessary to determine the impact of changes on the whole system. IEC standard 62304 clarifies software medical device life cycle...
