This document addresses the specification and demonstration of capability and system reliability to successfully deliver a medicinal product as part of design verification and manufacture, utilizing empirical methods as well as modelling. This includes risk-based techniques to establish and demonstrate the required reliability level for all disposable single use drug delivery systems (DDSs) for which there is a single opportunity to deliver a single dose of a medicinal product. DDSs covered by this document include, but are not limited to: — needle-based injection systems (ISO 11608-1); — needle-free injection systems (ISO 21649); — aerosol drug delivery systems (ISO 20072). This document does not cover: — DDSs with containers that can be replaced; — DDSs intended for dental use; — finished needles; — empty syringes; — catheters; — DDSs for multi-patient use; — pumps [IEC 60601-2-24 (if electronic) or ISO 28620 (if non-electronic)]; — stand-alone prefilled syringes defined by ISO 11040-8. In this document system reliability is limited to assessing functional performance of the DDS and does not address human factors or user interface considerations. These will be covered by a usability engineering program in accordance with IEC 62366-1. NOTE DDSs not in scope of this document can still benefit from elements in this document but provisions of this document might not completely fulfil the basic safety and effectiveness of such DDSs.

IEC 62127-1:2022 is available as IEC 62127-1:2022 RLV which contains the International Standard and its Redline version, showing all changes of the technical content compared to the previous edition.
IEC 62127-1:2022 specifies methods of use of calibrated hydrophones for the measurement in liquids of acoustic fields generated by ultrasonic medical equipment including bandwidth criteria and calibration frequency range requirements in dependence on the spectral content of the fields to be characterized.
This document:
- defines a group of acoustic parameters that can be measured on a physically sound basis;
- defines a second group of parameters that can be derived under certain assumptions from these measurements, and called derived intensity parameters;
- defines a measurement procedure that can be used for the determination of acoustic pressure parameters;
- defines the conditions under which the measurements of acoustic parameters can be made using calibrated hydrophones;
- defines procedures for correcting for limitations caused by the use of hydrophones with finite bandwidth and finite active element size, and for estimating the corresponding uncertainties.
IEC 62127-1:2022 cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2007 and Amendment 1:2013. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition.
a) The upper frequency limit of 40 MHz has been removed.
b) Hydrophone sensitivity definitions have been changed to recognize sensitivities as complex-valued quantities.
c) Procedures and requirements for narrow-band approximation and broadband measurements have been modified; details on waveform deconvolution have been added.
d) Procedures for spatial averaging correction have been amended.
e) Annex D, Annex E and bibliography have been updated to support the changes of the normative parts.
