This document specifies construction, design, performance requirements and test methods for medical face masks intended to limit the transmission of infective agents from staff to patients during surgical procedures and other medical settings with similar requirements. A medical face mask with an appropriate microbial barrier can also be effective in reducing the emission of infective agents from the nose and mouth of an asymptomatic carrier or a patient with clinical symptoms.
This European Standard is not applicable to masks intended exclusively for the personal protection of staff.
NOTE 1   Standards for masks for use as respiratory personal protective equipment are available.

This European Standard specifies information to be supplied to users and third party verifiers in addition to the usual labelling of medical devices (see EN 1041 and EN ISO 15223-1), concerning manufacturing and processing requirements. This European Standard gives information on the characteristics of single-use and reusable surgical gowns and surgical drapes used as medical devices for patients, clinical staff and equipment, intended to prevent the transmission of infective agents between clinical staff and patients during surgical and other invasive procedures. This European Standard specifies test methods for evaluating the identified characteristics of surgical drapes and gowns and sets performance requirements for these products.
EN 13795-1 does not cover requirements for resistance to penetration by laser radiation of products. Suitable test methods for resistance to penetration by laser radiation, together with an appropriate classification system, are given in EN ISO 11810.
EN 13795-1 does not cover requirements for incise drapes or films.
EN 13795-1 does not cover requirements for antimicrobial treatments for surgical gowns and drapes. Antimicrobial treatment may cause environmental risks such as resistance and pollution. However, antimicrobial treated surgical gowns and drapes fall under the scope of this standard with respect to their use as surgical gowns and drapes.

Medical gloves for single use - Guidance for selection
CEN/TR 16953:2017

This Technical Report provides information for those choosing or using sterile and non-sterile gloves for medical applications based on a risk assessment. It deals with gloves worn primarily for the protection of the patient and glove user from biological cross contamination.
NOTE   Gloves worn specifically for the protection of the glove user from e.g. chemical and biological hazards are covered by the EU-Directive on Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and the related standards e.g. EN 16523 1, EN 374-2, EN 374-4, EN ISO 374-1and EN ISO 374-5.
This document describes the rationale behind the requirements of the EN 455 series and explores the possible trade-offs in glove selection between the various factors which affect glove, physical properties, biocompatibility, comfort and sensitivity. The strengths and weaknesses of various alternative glove materials and the potential biological hazards presented by their use are also explored.

Medical gloves for single use - Part 2: Requirements and testing for physical properties
EN 455-2:2015

This European Standard specifies requirements and gives test methods for physical properties of single-use medical gloves (i.e. surgical gloves and examination/procedure gloves) in order to ensure that they provide and maintain in use an adequate level of protection from cross contamination for both patient and user.
This standard does not specify the size of a lot. Attention is drawn to the difficulties that can be associated with the distribution and control of very large lots. The recommended maximum individual lot size for production is 500 000.

Controlled environment storage cabinet for processed thermolabile endoscopes
EN 16442:2015

The proposed standard specifies the performance requirements applying to cabinets designed to store and dry heat-sensitive endoscopes (SCHE) following automated or manual reprocessing. The storage cabinets are designed to provide a controlled environment for storage of endoscope(s) and when necessary drying of the endoscope(s), including the endoscope(s) channels. The controlled environment is provided to ensure that during storage there is no deterioration of the microbial quality of the endoscope. The drying stage is intended to supplement, if necessary, any drying provided as part of the automated or manual reprocessing cycle. The cabinet is not intended to provide any cleaning or disinfection function. Note 1 The use of a storage cabinet may allow the safe use of the endoscope for an extended period from the time of reprocessing and improve availability for emergency use. Note 2 Thorough drying of an endoscope in a washer-disinfector may require a prolonged cycle time; the use of a drying-storage cabinet may enhance throughput of the endoscopes.

EN 60601-2-52:2010

This International Standard applies to the BASIC SAFETY and ESSENTIAL PERFORMANCE of MEDICAL BEDS intended for adults, hereafter referred to as MEDICAL BED as defined in 201.3.212. If a clause or subclause is specifically intended to be applicable to a MEDICAL BED only, or to ME SYSTEMS only, the title and content of that clause or subclause will say so. If that is not the case, the clause or subclause applies both to MEDICAL BED and to ME SYSTEMS, as relevant. HAZARDS inherent in the intended physiological function of MEDICAL BED or ME SYSTEMS within the scope of this standard are not covered by specific requirements in this standard except in 7.2.13 and 8.4.1 of the general standard.
