Standards and innovative research
Standards in the research and innovation process, by Blind & Gauch
Bakal, M., (2011). Challenges and Opportunities For The Medical Device Industry: Meeting The New IEC 62304 Standard RTC, [online] Available at:<http://rtcmagazine.com/articles/view/102203>.
Bakal’s typical stages both software and hardware teams use for analysis, design, implementation, and testing.

Testing• Snapshot in time• Susceptible to
golden sampling• “The sample
submitted complied with the requirements of EN XXXX”
Certification• More than just a
test or quality control system
• Many certification and testing bodies in the UK
• UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation Service)

CE Mark
• CE mark demonstrates conformity to essential requirements of all applicable New Approach Directives
• The CE marking is not a quality mark;
• The CE marking is mandatory in the EU;
• BSI cannot give authority to apply the CE marking;
• It is illegal to use the CE marking on a product that is outside the scope of all the New Approach directives.
Kitemark is…• Owned exclusively by BSI• Issued under Licence• A 3rd party voluntary mark of
quality and safety
The Process• Pre-Audit visit • Initial Assessment visit• Type Testing of new product• Scheme Manager reviews,
‘Type Test’ results and initial assessment report
• Award of Kitemark• Continuing assessment visits• Audit testing
