Embedded Software Development for Medical Devices

Whether you are developing FDA or EU Class II or Class III products such as surgical robots, infusion pumps, patient monitoring systems or medical imaging applications, Qt gives you the technology to make robust and reliable systems. What you create with Qt will not only impress your end users, but provide them with a natural and seamless user experience.

Qt fully supports your FDA, EN, ISO, IEC and other major and emerging medical market's certification and compliance efforts. Leveraging this support with Qt's development services and partnerships with leading medical services companies, you can create more, code less, and deploy everywhere- and ahead of the rest .

In addition, Qt has tools certified to IEC 62304:2015 up to safety class C.

Ultimate Performance and Reliability

Qt gives you full native performance and total system control. Integration into peripherals or existing patient backend systems is easy. For certifying your medical system, you’ll have all required testing documentation along with Qt source code. Our extensive Qt Partner ecosystem is there for you the whole way.

Modern and Customizable UX

Create a modern interface that not only impresses your end-users, but gives them a natural and self-guided user experience, in all environments, be it home or hospital. Visualize your health data or integrate live camera and video streams without compromising performance and reliability.

Shorter Time-to-Market, Really!

We realize the development cycle of medical devices is typically very long and requires significant investment. With Qt you can reach your market faster. Qt development tools give you lean and incremental development workflows with features that help you ensure the quality of your product from day one.

Qt Meets Certification Standards

In order to help medical device manufacturers satisfy their IEC 62304 requirements, as well as their FDA, EU, or other global certification efforts, The Qt Company provides documentation and transparency into its development process, product performance, and internal validation and testing.

TÜV NORD certifies that you can use Qt to build functionally safe medical embedded systems.

IEC 62304:2015 (2006 + A1)

(refers to techniques and measures of IEC 61508-3)

In safety critical medical systems, Qt Safe Renderer can be used as a software supporting tool in a software safety life cycle.

IEC 61508:2010-3 7.4.4 (SIL 3)

(electrical / electronic /programmable safety related systems)

Qt Safe Renderer addresses the need to have functionally safe devices.

ISO 9001:2015

The Qt Company is ISO 9001:2015 certified. The certification covers all our main operations globally. Read more here.

Qt assists in surgical operating room training system UI development

The graphical user interface (GUI) plays an important role, enabling control and delivering status information Lead developer Daniel Svensson at Orzone: “We deal with real-time simulation so we decided to go with C++ and Qt is the best GUI framework for C++.”

Device Creation

Medical device software development using Qt on top of multiple embedded hardware and OS combinations, from embedded Linux to Real-Time Operating Systems.

Application Development

Additionally, Qt applications run natively on all major desktop and mobile systems, letting you create your desktop monitoring application or mobile patient system using the same technology, maximizing code re-use and minimizing maintenance costs.

Intuitive user interfaces

Do you need your medical UI design to be more modern, more responsive, and more reliable? Qt has tools, libraries and APIs with ready-made controls to easily create great user experiences for any medical project.
