L'EN 13795-1 spécifie les informations à fournir aux utilisateurs et aux tiers vérificateurs en plus de l'étiquetage standard des dispositifs médicaux (voir l'EN 980 et l'EN 1041), concernant les exigences relatives à la fabrication et au traitement. Cette norme donne des indications générales sur les caractéristiques des champs chirurgicaux , des casaques et des tenues de bloc à usage unique et réutilisables utilisés en tant que dispositifs médicaux pour les patients, le personnel et les équipements. Elle vise à prévenir la transmission d'agents infectieux entre les patients et le personnel chirurgical au cours des interventions chirurgicales et autres interventions invasives.
L'EN 13795 ne traite pas des masques chirurgicaux, des gants chirurgicaux, des matériaux d'emballage, des surchaussures, des articles coiffants et des champs à inciser. Les exigences relatives aux gants médicaux sont traitées dans la série des Normes européennes EN 455 et les matériaux d'emballage sont abordés dans la série EN 868. Les exigences relatives aux masques chirurgicaux et aux articles coiffants seront spécifiées dans des normes élaborées ultérieurement par le CEN/TC 205.
L'EN 13795 n'aborde pas les exigences relatives à l'inflammabilité des produits utilisés en chirurgie laser. Les méthodes d'essai appropriées à l'inflammabilité et à la résistance à la pénétration par rayonnement laser, ainsi qu'un système de classification adéquat, sont traités dans l'EN ISO 11810. D'autres exigences essentielles applicables aux vêtements et aux champs chirurgicaux sont traitées par d'autres normes européennes.

However, it has been decided that these parts will now bedeveloped by the Vienna Agreement/CEN lead route in conjunction with ISO/TC 94/SC 13. As a result, what was tohave been EN 13795-3 will be published as EN ISO 22612 Clothing for protection against infectious agents – Testmethod for resistance to penetration by biologically contaminant dust through protective clothing materials, whatwas to have been EN 13795-4 will be published as EN ISO 22610 Clothing for protection against infectious agents– Test method for determination of penetration by bacteria through protective clothing materials and what was tohave been EN 13795-5 will be published as EN 13795-3.According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the followingcountries are bound to implement this European Standard : Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland,France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain,Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.SIST EN 13795-1:2003
EN 13795-1:2002 (E)4IntroductionThe transmission of infective agents during invasive surgical procedures can occur in several ways (see annex C).Surgical drapes, gowns and clean air suits are used to minimize the spread of infective agents to and from patients’operating wounds, thereby helping to prevent post-operative wound infections (see annex C).The performance required of coverings for patients, clinical staff and equipment varies with, for example, the typeand duration of the procedure, the degree of wetness of the operation field, the degree of mechanical stress on thematerials and the susceptibility of the patient to infection.The use of surgical gowns with resistance to the penetration of liquids can also diminish the risk to the operatingstaff from blood-borne infective agents carried in blood or body fluids.The EN 13795 series of European Standards, together with EN ISO 22610 and EN ISO 22612, is intended to assistthe communication between users, manufacturers and third party verifiers with regard to material or productcharacteristics. It focuses on relevant Essential Requirements arising from the Medical Device Directive93/42/EEC. The general requirements and guidance in EN 13795-1 are expected to be of help to manufacturers,test houses and users when designing, processing, assessing and selecting products. It is the intention of EN13795 to ensure the same level of safety from single-use and reusable surgical clothing and drapes throughouttheir useful life.1 ScopeThis standard specifies information to be supplied to users and third party verifiers, in addition to the usual labellingof medical devices (see EN 980 and EN 1041), concerning manufacturing and processing requirements. Thisstandard gives general guidance on the characteristics of single-use and reusable surgical gowns, surgical drapesand clean air suits used as medical devices for patients, clinical staff and equipment. It is intended to prevent thetransmission of infective agents between patients and clinical staff during surgical and other invasive procedures.Surgical masks, surgical gloves, packaging materials, foot and head wear and incision drapes are not covered byEN 13795. Requirements for medical gloves are given in the EN 455 series of European Standards and packagingmaterials are covered by the EN 868 series. Requirements for surgical masks and head coverings will be specifiedin future CEN/TC 205 standards.EN 13795 does not cover requirements for flammability of products used in laser surgery. Suitable test methods forflammability and resistance to penetration by laser radiation, together with an appropriate classification system, aregiven in EN ISO 11810. Additional essential requirements that apply to surgical clothing and drapes are covered byother European Standards.2 Terms and definitionsFor the purposes of this European Standard, the following terms and definitions apply.2.1clean air suitsuit intended and shown to minimize contamination of the operating wound by the wearer's skin scales carryinginfective agents via the operating room air thereby reducing the risk of wound infectionNOTEUnlike the suit usually worn in the operation room, the clean air suit is designed to reduce the operating room aircontamination by personnel.2.2cleanlinessfreedom from unwanted foreign matterSIST EN 13795-1:2003
