4. Criteria to Analyze and Evaluate the Acceptability of Risk Criteria for risk acceptability has defined based upon applicable national or regional regulations and relevant International Standards, and taken into account available information such as the generally accepted state of the art and known stakeholder concerns. Based on the guidelines being set up by the company management the identified risks will be evaluated in the risk management worksheet and reported in annual risk management reports as follows (according to ISO 14971): In determining acceptable risk, we will research pertinent regulations, standards and associated literature to identify state of the art for power supply with medical and dental equipment. The criteria of risk acceptability were according to requirement of IEC 60601-1. Based on the guidelines being set up by the company management the identified risks will be evaluated in the risk management worksheet and reported in annual risk management reports as follows (according to ISO 14971):
A: Severity of Harm (Negligible, Minor, Serious, Critical, Catastrophic) Severity (Impact of event occurrence) Definition Common term Rank (1=lowest)
Catastrophic 5 Could result in death, or life-threatening injury
Critical 4 Could result in permanent partial disability, injuries
Serious 3 Could result in injury requiring professional medical intervention
Minor 2 Could result in temporary injury not requiring professional medical intervention
Negligible 1 Inconvenience or temporary discomfort, these do not require any medical treatment.

Risk Acceptability Assessment Criteria
The following criteria will be used according to IEC 60601-1:1988, IEC 60601-1:2005+ CORR. 1 (2006) + CORR. 2 (2007), IEC 60601-1:2012 and IEC 60601-1-2
Electromagnetic Energy Hazards
Humidity, cleaning, harmful ingress of liquids could affect the integrity of electrical insulation. Assessment criteria in determining if the resulting risk is acceptable include:
- no signs of wetting the hazardous parts; or
- the leakage current measurements to evaluate the accessibility to the hazardous parts, the dielectric strength test to evaluate the integrity of electrical insulation and measurement of electrical insulation coordination such as creepage distance and air clearances.
Mechanical Energy Hazards
Mechanical stress (caused by pushing, impact and rough handling) of the product could affect the integrity of electrical insulation and assessment criteria in determining if the resulting risk is acceptable include:
- no structural damages; or
- the dielectric strength test to evaluate the integrity of electrical insulation and measurement of electrical insulation coordination such as creepage distance and air clearances.
Thermal Energy Hazards
Molding stress (during fabrication of enclosure) could affect the integrity of mechanical strength and assessment criteria in determining if the resulting risk is acceptable include:
- no deformation of enclosure; or
- the dielectric strength test to evaluate the integrity of electrical insulation and measurement of electrical insulation coordination such as creepage distance and air clearances.
Fire Hazards
Assessment criteria in determining if the resulting risk is acceptable include:
- not exceeding maximum temperature; or
- no emission of flames, molten metal, poisonous or ignitable substance in hazardous quantities (demonstrated by no ignition of the cheesecloth), or no deformation of enclosure
5. Controlling of the Management Process by the Management
The risk management will be achieved continuously, to analyse the experience achieved with the product in question, to evaluate the risk situation and to document this appropriately in the risk management worksheet. If necessary, or in case of special incidents, the management or its deputy will initiate an extraordinary meeting with responsible person. The management controls include the evaluation of actions taken as well as the success of these actions. It includes also the evaluation of available information about competitors' products.

Step 1: Intended Use and Identification of Characteristics Related to the Safety of the Medical Device
The intended use and each reasonably imaginable and foreseeable misuse will be described in the risk management plan together with the product performance properties, which may influence the safety of the medical device. Then, the performance properties will be taken over into the risk management worksheet and the risks will be evaluated which occur if these performance properties are not achieved. For describing the features of the medical device and its environment in which it is used, Appendix C of the current standard EN ISO 14971:2009 is applied.
Step 2: Identification of Hazards
All known and foreseeable failures / dysfunctions / hazards, which infringe the function and safety of the medical device, will be identified. For this the medical device will be analysed in its regular mode, failure mode, (also in case of reasonably foreseeable misuse). Moreover already earlier discovered hazards, incidents or situations will be considered.
Starting point is always the identified features mentioned in Step 1, as well as the hazards listed in the tables of ISO 14971. These tables are listed in the appendix of the risk management plan and are to be considered accordingly within the risk management worksheet.
Step 3: Estimation of the Risk(s) for Each Hazardous Situation
For each defined or assumed hazard of Step 2 the implied risk will be assessed. The expected physical damage or severity of harm, and probability of occurrence.
Reasonably foreseeable sequences or combinations of events that can result in a hazardous situation will be considered and the resulting hazardous situation(s) will be recorded.
Step 4: Risk Evaluation
After that each risk will be evaluated, whether it is acceptable or not and whether a risk reduction is required. The criteria to evaluate the acceptability are listed in the risk management plan.
Step 5: Risk Control Option Analysis
For risks which are within the acceptable area no actions of risk control will be taken. Risks, which are outside this area, will be treated case by case. Any risk control measures have the goal to reach at least the „ALARP acceptance level“ (As Low As Reasonably Practicable).
Step 6: Implementation of Risk Control Measures
The execution of the actions of Step 5, and the effectiveness of the risk control measures taken will be evaluated/verified and recorded in the risk management worksheet.
Step 7: Residual Risk Evaluation
VITA Electronics Co., LTD.
Issue Date: 2015-06-04 Report No:RP1511051
12 of 12 Ver. 1.0
The residual risks will be evaluated and documented in the risk management worksheet. In case a residual risk is not acceptable, Step 5 will be repeated.
Step 8: Risk / Benefit Analysis
Not acceptable risks can be accepted in exceptional cases, if a particularly high benefit is to be expected for the patient, and alternative products or treatment measures with minor risks are not available.
Step 9: Risks Arising from Risk Control Measures
In this step whether the actions of risk control and/or risk reduction would introduce new hazards or hazardous situations will be evaluated. In this case Step 3 has to be repeated.
Step 10: Completeness of Risk Control
In this step, whether all relevant risks have been considered and whether the risk evaluation process is complete will be checked. In case the risk evaluation is acknowledged as complete, the term “no further action” is stated in the risk management worksheet (Risk Management Worksheet I) or if this is not true, appropriate descriptions of proposed risk control measures have to be stated (Risk Management Worksheet II).
Step 11: Evaluation of Overall Residual Risk Acceptability
After the completion of all risk control measures, the whole residual risks as well as the acceptability of the residual risks will be evaluated. The evaluation of the residual risks will be performed analogically to the evaluation of the basic risks.
Step 12: Risk Management Report
There will be a summarizing risk management report. It will summarize the risk analysis, risk evaluation and management of preventive respectively risk control measures. This risk management report will be set up and released at least once per year by the management or its deputy.
Step 13: Production and Post-Production Information
Experience and information, which are collected during production and during the post productionphase, are evaluated, starting with step 3.
In each case the insights obtained during the risk management process will be implemented in any applicable product-related documents (e.g. Risk Management Worksheet I and II, instructions for use, labels and packaging).
