My copy of AAMI60601-1-2 3d ed has same requirements as 2d ed, at least for stuff my employer makes, but with addition of risk management.
Looking at CENELEC page for FprEN 60601-1-2:2012, do not see any dates or status other than 'approval stage'. So do not think that we will see this for another three to five years. If stage code = 5060, why has the TC not said anything? I see no ANSI/AAMI activity for 4th edition - anyone know status or intentions?

However it should be noted that IEC 60601-1-2, 4th edition will be sent out in the next few weeks for final vote. Many changes (some very significant) are being proposed so stay tuned. We expect to know the outcome of the voting by early February. Darryl Darryl P.
