Requirements from accreditors?
Key findings: Health IT may lead to safer care and/or introduce new
safety risks Safety is a characteristic of a sociotechnical system
that includes people, process, environment, organization and technology
System-level failures occur almost always because of unforeseen combinations of component failures
Recommendations: Health care accrediting organizations should adopt
criteria relating to EHR safety. All health IT vendors should be required to publicly
register and list their products Health IT vendors should be required to adopt quality
and risk management processes Reporting of health IT– related adverse events should
be mandatory for vendors and voluntary and confidential for users.

Industry is using Risk Management for Medical Devices
Focus on Patient Safety
How does Risk Management focus on Patients?
The Intended Use of a medical device can be depicted using an idealized functional input/output diagram:

Electrical Safety: IEC 60601-1 (3rd edition)
In an environment of 1,5 maround an (accommodated) Patient …
… increased requirements for Medical Electrical Equipment do apply including their connection to (medical) IT networks.

14.13. PEMS intended to be connected to an IT-Network If the PEMS is intended to be incorporated into an IT-NETWORK that is not validated by
the PEMS MANUFACTURER, the MANUFACTURER shall make available instructions for implementing such connection including the following:
a) the purpose of the PEMS’s connection to an IT-NETWORK;
b) the required characteristics of the IT-NETWORK incorporating the PEMS;
c) the required configuration of the IT-NETWORK incorporating the PEMS;
d) the technical specifications of the network connection of the PEMS including security specifications;
•
e) the intended information flow between the PEMS the IT-NETWORK and other devices on the IT-NETWORK, and the intended routing through the IT-NETWORK; and NOTE 1 This can include aspects of effectiveness and data and system security as related to BASIC SAFETY
and ESSENTIAL PERFORMANCE (see also Clause H.6 and IEC 80001-1:2010).
f) a list of the HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS resulting from a failure of the IT-NETWORK to provide the characteristics required to meet the purpose of the PEMS connection to the IT-NETWORK.
IEC 60601-1/A1 - FDIS (verteilt als 62A/805/FDIS; vom 27.4.2012)
Compliance is checked by inspection of the instructions.

In the ACCOMPANYING DOCUMENTS the MANUFACTURER shall instruct the RESPONSIBLE ORGANISATION that:
– connection of the PEMS to an IT-NETWORK that includes other equipment could result in previously unidentified RISKS to PATIENT, OPERATORS or third parties;– the RESPONSIBLE ORGANISATION should identify, analyze, evaluate and control these RISKS;– subsequent changes to the IT-NETWORK could introduce new RISKS and require additional analysis; and– changes to the IT-NETWORK include:
• changes in the IT-network configuration;• connection of additional items to the IT-NETWORK;• disconnecting items from the IT-NETWORK;• update of equipment connected to the IT-NETWORK;• upgrade of equipment connected to the IT-NETWORK.
NOTE 3: IEC 80001-1 provides guidance for the RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATION to address these RISKS.

Scope and Key Properties of IEC 80001-1: 2010

“ This standard defines roles, responsibilities and activities that are necessary for RISK MANAGEMENT of IT-NETWORKS incorporating MEDICAL DEVICES to address
SAFETY, EFFECTIVENESS DATA & SYSTEM SECURITY
(the KEY PROPERTIES), …
• Originally separate Medical Devices get connected via an (unsafe & unsecure) IT-Network of the Responsible Organization
• Out of this „general“ IT-Network emerge a new
„Medical IT-Network“
The Issues are• Heavily regulated „safe Medical Devices“ get connected with
„off-the-shelf IT-Hardware“ • There is no clear Responsibilities established (MT vs. IT)• Disturbances/Overload at an IT-Network could compromise
the safety of Medical Devices• IT-Networks are supposed to „run“ 24/7
The „Medical IT-Network“ (protection goal of IEC 80001-1)
17
• Definition for each Medical IT-Network (separately)
• Key Properties for Risk-Management are:
Safety for Patient, User/Operator und Third Parties
Effectiveness for intended workflows supported by the IT-Network
ability to produce the intended result for the PATIENT and the RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATION
Data- & System Security reasonable protection from degradation of confidentiality,
integrity and availability (of information assets)
