What are the key differences between IEC 62304:2015 Medical Device Software Lifecycle Processes and ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration Laboratories?

IEC 62304:2015 Medical Device Software Lifecycle Processes has 33 controls across its framework, while ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration Laboratories covers 90 controls. Direct mapping analysis identifies 9 overlapping controls (18% coverage). The frameworks diverge most significantly in Clause 9 - Software Problem Resolution Process, where 7 IEC 62304:2015 Medical Device Software Lifecycle Processes controls have no direct ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration Laboratories equivalent.

How many controls map between IEC 62304:2015 Medical Device Software Lifecycle Processes and ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration Laboratories?

Of 33 total IEC 62304:2015 Medical Device Software Lifecycle Processes controls, 9 map directly to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration Laboratories controls — representing 18% coverage. The remaining 41 controls represent compliance gaps requiring additional documentation or compensating controls to satisfy both frameworks simultaneously.

What are the compliance gaps when mapping IEC 62304:2015 Medical Device Software Lifecycle Processes to ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration Laboratories?

41 IEC 62304:2015 Medical Device Software Lifecycle Processes controls have no direct equivalent in ISO/IEC 17025:2017 - General Requirements for Testing and Calibration Laboratories. The highest concentration of gaps is in Clause 9 - Software Problem Resolution Process with 7 unmapped controls. These gaps represent areas where additional controls, policies, or documentation must be created to achieve compliance with both frameworks.
