Washer-disinfectors - Part 4: Requirements and tests for washer-disinfectors employing chemical disinfection for thermolabile endoscopes (ISO 15883-4:2008)

This European standard specifies the particular requirements for washer-disinfectors intended to be used for cleaning and disinfection of thermolabile re-usable medical devices including flexible endoscopes used in the context of medical, dental, pharmaceutical and veterinary practice. This standard also specifies the performance requirements for the cleaning and disinfection of the accessories which may be required for type testing, works testing, validation, routine control and monitoring and re-validation, periodically and after essential repairs are also specified.

Reinigungs-Desinfektionsgeräte - Teil 4: Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren für Reinigungs-Desinfektionsgeräte mit chemischer Desinfektion für thermolabile Endoskope (ISO/FDIS 15883-4:2007)

Dieser Teil von ISO 15883 legt die besonderen Anforderungen an Reinigungs-Desinfektionsgeräte (RDG) einschließlich der Leistung fest, die für das Reinigen und die chemische Desinfektion von thermolabilen Endoskopen vorgesehen sind.
Dieser Teil von ISO 15883 legt außerdem die Leistungsanforderungen an das Reinigen und die Desinfektion des Reinigungs-Desinfektionsgeräts sowie von dessen Bauteilen und Zubehör fest, die zum Erreichen der erforderlichen Leistung erforderlich sein können.
Des Weiteren sind die Verfahren, Ausrüstung und Anweisungen festgelegt, die für die Typprüfung, Werksprüfung, Validierung (Installation, Betriebs- und Leistungsbeurteilung nach erstmaliger Installation), Routinekontrolle und Überwachung sowie die regelmäßig und nach größeren Reparaturen durchzuführende Revalidierung erforderlich sind.
ANMERKUNG 1   Zusätzlich gibt Anhang A einen Leitfaden für eine geeignete Aufteilung der Verantwortlichkeiten für die in diesem Teil der ISO 15883 erfassten Tätigkeiten.
ANMERKUNG 2   RDG, die diesem Teil von ISO 15883 entsprechen, können auch zum Reinigen und zur chemischen Desinfektion von anderen thermolabilen und wiederverwendbaren medizinischen Geräten verwendet werden, bei denen der Hersteller der Geräte dieses Desinfektionsverfahren empfohlen hat.
RDG, die den Anforderungen dieses Teils von ISO 15883 entsprechen, sind nicht zum Reinigen und Desinfizieren medizinischer Geräte, einschließlich endoskopischen Zubehörs, vorgesehen, die hitzebeständig sind und durch thermische Verfahren (siehe ISO 15883-1:2006, 4.1.5) desinfiziert oder sterilisiert werden können.
Es ist möglich, dass die in diesem Teil von ISO 15883 festgelegten Leistungsanforderungen nicht die Inaktivierung oder die Beseitigung des (der) verursachenden Agens (Agenzien) (Prionenproteine) von transmissiblen spongiformen Enzephalopathien sicherstellen.

Laveurs désinfecteurs - Partie 4: Exigences et essais pour les laveurs désinfecteurs destinés à la désinfection chimique des endoscopes thermolabiles (ISO 15883-4:2008)

La présente partie du prEN ISO 15883 spécifie les exigences de performances particulières pour les laveurs-désinfecteurs (LD) destinés à être utilisés pour le nettoyage et la désinfection chimique des endoscopes thermosensibles.
NOTE 1   Les LD conformes à cette partie du prEN ISO 15883 peuvent également être utilisés pour le nettoyage et la désinfection chimique d'autres dispositifs médicaux réutilisables thermosensibles pour lesquels le fabricant du dispositif a recommandé cette méthode de désinfection.
Les LD conformes aux exigences de cette partie ne sont pas destinés au nettoyage et à la désinfection des dispositifs médicaux, y compris les accessoires des endoscopes, qui sont thermostables et peuvent être désinfectés ou stérilisés par des méthodes thermiques (voir prEN ISO 15883-1:2003, 4.1.5).
Les exigences de performances spécifiées dans cette Partie ne sont pas destinées à assurer l'inactivation ou l'élimination de l'(des) agent(s) causal(s) (protéine du prion) des encéphalopathies spongiformes transmissibles.
NOTE 2   De nombreux désinfectants sont connus pour fixer les protéines et il convient d'en tenir compte lorsque la présence de la protéine du prion est possible.
