BS EN ISO 14155-2:2009 Clinical investigation of medical devices for human subjects. Clinical investigation plans
This standard is the second part of BS EN ISO 14155 Clinical investigation of medical devices for human subjects, and should be read in conjunction with that standard.
Part 2 of BS EN ISO 14155 is intended to assist manufacturers, sponsors, monitors and clinical investigators in the design and conduct of clinical investigations. It is also written to assist regulatory bodies and ethics committees in their roles of reviewing Clinical Investigation Plans (CIP). The CIP is a framework within which appropriate experience, insight, judgement, qualification and education need to be applied. The scientific rigour of a CIP can be verified and possibly improved by an independent review of the CIP.
BS EN ISO 14155-2 provides requirements for the preparation of a Clinical Investigation Plan (CIP) for the clinical investigation of medical devices. The compilation of a CIP in accordance with the requirements of this standard and adherence to it will help in optimising the scientific validity and reproducibility of the results of a clinical investigation.
BS EN ISO 14155-2 does not apply to in vitro diagnostic medical devices.
