EN ISO 1135-4:2015

Transfusion equipment for medical use - Part 4: Transfusion sets for single use, gravity feed (ISO 1135-4:2015)

ISO 1135-4:2015 specifies requirements for single use transfusion gravity sets for medical use in order to ensure their compatibility with containers for blood and blood components as well as with intravenous equipment.
Secondary aims of ISO 1135-4:2015 are to provide guidance on specifications relating to the quality and performance of materials used in transfusion sets, to present designations for transfusion set components, and to ensure the compatibility of sets with a range of cellular and plasma blood components.
In some countries, the national pharmacopoeia or other national regulations are legally binding and take precedence over ISO 1135-4:2015.

Transfusionsgeräte zur medizinischen Verwendung - Teil 4: Transfusionsgeräte für Schwerkrafttransfusionen zur einmaligen Verwendung (ISO 1135-4:2015)

Dieser Teil von ISO 1135 legt Anforderungen an zur einmaligen Verwendung bestimmte medizinische Transfusionsgeräte für Schwerkrafttransfusionen fest, um sicherzustellen, dass sie zur Verwendung mit Behältern für Blut und Blutbestandteile und Geräten zur intravenösen Punktion geeignet sind.
Weitere Ziele dieses Teils von ISO 1135 sind die Bereitstellung einer Anleitung zu Spezifikationen der Qualität und Leistungsfähigkeit von Werkstoffen, die für Transfusionsgeräte verwendet werden, die Angabe von Benennungen für Einzelteile von Transfusionsgeräten und die Sicherstellung der Kompatibilität der Geräte mit einer Reihe von Zell- und Blutplasmabestandteilen.
In einigen Ländern sind das nationale Arzneibuch oder andere nationale Bestimmungen rechtlich bindend und haben Vorrang vor diesem Teil von ISO 1135.

Matériel de transfusion à usage médical - Partie 4: Appareils de transfusion non réutilisables à alimentation par gravité (ISO 1135-4:2015)

ISO 1135-4:2015 spécifie les exigences relatives aux appareils de transfusion non réutilisables à alimentation par gravité à usage médical, afin d'assurer leur compatibilité avec les conteneurs de sang et de composants sanguins, ainsi qu'avec les dispositifs intraveineux.
Les objectifs secondaires de l'ISO 1135-4:2015 consistent à fournir des préconisations concernant les spécifications de qualité et de performance des matériaux utilisés dans les appareils de transfusion, de proposer des désignations pour les composants de ces appareils de transfusion, et d'assurer la compatibilité de ces appareils avec un large éventail de produits cellulaires et plasmiques du sang.
Dans certains pays, la pharmacopée ou d'autres règlements nationaux sont légalement obligatoires et ont donc préséance sur l'ISO 1135-4:2015.

Transfuzijska oprema za uporabo v medicini - 4. del: Transfuzijske garniture za enkratno uporabo, delujoče na osnovi gravitacije (ISO 1135-4:2015)

Ta del standarda ISO 1135 določa zahteve za transfuzijske garniture za enkratno uporabo, delujoče na osnovi gravitacije, da se zagotovi njihova združljivost z vsebniki za kri in krvne sestavine ter z intravenozno opremo.
Druga cilja tega dela standarda ISO 1135 sta zagotoviti navodila za specifikacije v zvezi s kakovostjo in učinkovitostjo materialov, uporabljenih za transfuzijske garniture, predstaviti oznake za sestavne dele transfuzijskih garnitur, ter zagotoviti združljivost garnitur z naborom celičnih in plazemskih krvnih sestavin.
V nekaterih državah je nacionalna farmakopeja ali druga nacionalna zakonodaja pravno zavezujoča in ima prednost pred tem delom standarda ISO 1135.

Annex ZA
(informative)
Relationship between this European Standard and the Essential
Requirements of EU Directive 93/42/EEC on Medical devices
This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association to provide a means of conforming to Essential
Requirements of the New Approach Directive 93/42/EEC, Medical devices
Once this standard is cited in the Official Journal of the European Union under that Directive and has
been implemented as a national standard in at least one Member State, compliance with the clauses of
this standard given in Table ZA.1 confers, within the limits of the scope of this standard, a presumption
of conformity with the corresponding Essential Requirements of that Directive and associated EFTA
regulations.
NOTE 1 Where a reference from a clause of this standard to the risk management process is made, the risk
management process needs to be in compliance with Directive 93/42/EEC / Directive 90/385/EEC, as amended
by 2007/47/EC. This means that risks have to be reduced ‘as far as possible’, ‘to a minimum’, ‘to the lowest
possible level’, ‘minimized’ or ‘removed’, according to the wording of the corresponding essential requirement.
NOTE 2 The manufacturer’s policy for determining acceptable risk must be in compliance with essential
requirements 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11 and 12 of the Directive.
NOTE 3 This Annex ZA is based on Normative References according to Table of References, replacing the
references in the core text.
NOTE 4 When an Essential Requirement does not appear in Table ZA.1, it means that it is not addressed by this
European Standard.
