The international standard for the application of medical device symbols on labels, ISO 15223-1, has been amended and the 4th Edition will replace ISO 15223-1:2016
This amendment is multifaceted and will introduce many new changes to the symbol requirements that medical device organizations around the world will be expected to follow.
The 4th Edition of ISO 15223-1 will include 25 additional symbols in total, newly defined terms and removal of existing terms as well as inclusion of terms from other standards, and expansion of the informative annex containing examples—just to name a few.
