IEC 62304 Lifecycle Manager Skill

Purpose

The IEC 62304 Lifecycle Manager Skill supports medical device software lifecycle management per IEC 62304, ensuring proper classification, documentation, and maintenance of software as a medical device (SaMD) and software in medical devices (SiMD).

Capabilities

  • Software safety classification (Class A, B, C)
  • Software development plan template generation
  • SOUP (Software of Unknown Provenance) management
  • Software architecture documentation templates
  • Anomaly and problem tracking
  • Configuration management guidance
  • Maintenance planning
  • Software requirements specification templates
  • Unit/integration test planning
  • Release documentation
  • Change control workflows

Usage Guidelines

When to Use

  • Planning medical device software projects
  • Classifying software safety levels
  • Managing SOUP components
  • Preparing for regulatory submissions

Prerequisites

  • Device intended use defined
  • Software scope identified
  • Hazard analysis completed
  • Development team resources available

Best Practices

  • Classify software based on hazard analysis
  • Document all SOUP with risk assessments
