M/BC/CEN/89/9 - Medical devices
Joint Standardization request to CEN/CENELEC concerning harmonized standards relating to horizontal aspects in the field of medical devices
General Information
This Part 2-1 specifies requirements that are applicable to those ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES intended to treat bradyarrhythmias. The tests that are specified in EN 45502 are type tests, and are to be carried out on samples of a device to show compliance. This Part 2-1 is also applicable to some non-implantable parts and accessories of the devices (see Note 1). The characteristics of the IMPLANTABLE PULSE GENERATOR or LEAD shall be determined by either the appropriate method detailed in this Part 2-1 or by any other method demonstrated to have an accuracy equal to, or better than, the method specified. In the case of dispute, the method detailed in this Part 2-1 shall apply. Any features of an ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE intended to treat tachyarrhythmias are covered by EN 45502-2-2. NOTE 1 The device that is commonly referred to as an active implantable medical device may in fact be a single device, a combination of devices, or a combination of a device or devices and one or more accessories. Not all of these parts are required to be either partially or totally implantable, but there is a need to specify some requirements of non-implantable parts and accessories if they could affect the safety or performance of the implantable device. NOTE 2 The terminology used in this European Standard is intended to be consistent with the terminology of Directive 90/385/EEC. NOTE 3 In this European Standard, terms printed in small capital letters are used as defined in Clause 3. Where a defined term is used as a qualifier in another term, it is not printed in small capital letters unless the concept thus qualified is also defined.

This Part 2-3 of EN 45502 specifies requirements that are applicable to those ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES that are intended to treat hearing impairment via electrical stimulation of the auditory pathways. Devices which treat hearing impairment via means other than electrical stimulation are not covered by this European Standard. The tests that are specified in EN 45502 are type tests and are to be carried out on samples of a device to show compliance. This Part of EN 45502 is also applicable to NON-IMPLANTABLE PARTS and accessories of the devices (see NOTE 1). The electrical characteristics of the IMPLANTABLE PART shall be determined by either the appropriate method detailed in this particular standard or by any other method demonstrated to have an accuracy equal to, or better than, the method specified. In the case of dispute, the method detailed in this particular standard shall apply. NOTE 1 The device that is commonly referred to as an active implantable medical device can in fact be a single device, a combination of devices, or a combination of a device or devices and one or more accessories. Not all of these parts are required to be either partially or totally implantable, but there is a need to specify some requirements of NON-IMPLANTABLE PARTS and accessories if they could affect the safety or performance of the implantable part. NOTE 2 The terminology used in this European Standard is intended to be consistent with the terminology of Directive 90/385/EEC. NOTE 3 In this European Standard, terms printed in small capital letters are used as defined in Clause 3. Where a defined term is used as a qualifier in another term, it is not printed in small capital letters unless the concept thus qualified is also defined.

This Part 2-2 of EN 45502 specifies requirements that are applicable to IMPLANTABLE CARDIOVERTER DEFIBRILLATORS and the functions of ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES intended to treat tachyarrhythmia. The tests that are specified in EN 45502 are type tests and are to be carried out on samples of a device to show compliance. This part of EN 45502 is also applicable to some non-implantable parts and accessories of the devices (see Note 1). The characteristics of the IMPLANTABLE PULSE GENERATOR or LEAD shall be determined by either the appropriate method detailed in this particular standard or by any other method demonstrated to have accuracy equal to, or better than, the method specified. In the case of dispute, the method detailed in this Particular Standard shall apply. Any aspect of an ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE intended to treat bradyarrhythmias is covered by EN 45502–2-1 Particular requirements for active implantable medical devices intended to treat bradyarrhythmia (Pacemakers). NOTE 1 The device that is commonly referred to as an ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE may in fact be a single device, a combination of devices, or a combination of a device or devices and one or more accessories. Not all of these parts are required to be either partially or totally implantable, but there is a need to specify some requirements of non-implantable parts and accessories if they could affect the safety or performance of the implantable device. NOTE 2 The terminology used in this European Standard is intended to be consistent with the terminology of Directive 90/385/EEC. NOTE 3 In this European Standard, terms printed in small capital letters are used as defined in Clause 3. Where a defined term is used as a qualifier in another term, it is not printed in small capital letters unless the concept thus qualified is also defined. NOTE 4 Particular requirements for congestive heart failure devices are under consideration. These types of devices are not covered by this standard.

This Part 1 of EN 45502 specifies requiremnets that are generally applicable to ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES. For particular types of ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES, these essential requirements are supplemented or modified by the requirements of particular standards which form additional parts of this European Standard. The test that are specified in EN 45502 are type tests and are to be carries out on samples of a device to show compliance. This Part of EN 45502 is applicable not only to ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES that are electrically powered but also to those powered by other energy sources ( for example by gas pressure or by springs.). This Part of EN 45502 is also applicable to some non-implantable parts and accessories of the devices (see note 1). NOTE 1: The device that is commonly referred to as an ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES may in fact be a single device, a combination of devices, or a combination of a device or devices and one or more accessories. Not all of these parts are required to be either partially or totally implantable, but there is a need to specify some requirements of non- implantable parts and accessories if they could affect safety or performance of the implantable device. NOTE 2: The terminology used in this European Standard is intended to be consistent with the terminology of Directive 90/385/EEC. NOTE 3: In this European Standard, terms printed in SMALL CAPITAL LETTERS are used as defined in clause 3. Where a defined term is used as a qualifier in another term, it is not printed in small capital letters unless the concept thus qualified is also defined.
