Hi

I google for IEC 60601-1  and failed with all versions  :-//

Some Googling would have give you some answers

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEC_60601

https://www.iso.org/standard/65529.html   

 Abstract
IEC 60601-1:2005 contains requirements concerning basic safety and essential performance that are generally applicable to medical electrical equipment. For certain types of medical electrical equipment, these requirements are either supplemented or modified by the special requirements of a collateral or particular standard. Where particular standards exist, this standard should not be used alone.

IEC standard publication is not free

You may get a copy from

(1) university library
(2) buy it online, IEC webstore https://www.iec.ch/

Also, the IEC standard might not be the one which is relevant for your country.
I typically have to buy the NEN-EN-IEC standards, that are NOT the same, as it has extra addendum, and legally this matters a lot.

its old and you should look at the power points online for the new version. once you read the previous generation you can get an idea how to do it pretty much right if you read all the summaries about it (because no one wants to read or buy this shit, and I mean no one, not even companies.. let alone re-reading the new version). Maybe a big one. i nearly went blind going though IEC documents before

they have like a 14 page document telling you which documents you need to read to make a water heater if its in the hospital. its not a bad thing though or we would be seeing very strange things and accidents.

this is iec 60601-1

there is like 601's up to 10 or more. i would recommend if you are doing this to try to read all of them ... you will appreciate your effort later if you need a operation though
