Information supplied by the manufacturer of medical devices
This standard specifies requirements for information to be supplied by a manufacturer for medical devices regulated by Council Directive 90/385/EEC relating to active implantable medical devices and Council Directive 93/42/EEC concerning medical devices. It does not specify the language to be used for such information, nor does it specify the means by which the information is to be supplied. It is also intended to complement the specific requirements of the cited EU Directives on medical devices by providing guidance on means by which certain requirements can be met. If a manufacturer follows these means, they will provide a presumption of conformity with the relevant Essential Requirements regarding information to be supplied.
This standard does not cover requirements for provision of information for in vitro diagnostic medical devices, which are covered by other labelling standards (see Bibliography).
NOTE When national transpositions of the Directives specify the means by which information shall be supplied, this standard does not provide derogation from these requirements for that country.
Bereitstellung von Informationen durch den Hersteller von Medizinprodukten
Die vorliegende Norm legt Anforderungen an Informationen fest, die von einem Hersteller für Medizinprodukte nach der EU-Richtlinie 90/385/EWG zu aktiven implantierbaren medizinischen Geräten und EU-Richtlinie 93/42/EWG zu Medizinprodukten zur Verfügung zu stellen sind. Es werden weder die verwendete Sprache für diese Informationen noch die Mittel festgelegt, mit denen die Informationen zu geben sind. Es ist ferner beabsichtigt, die besonderen Anforderungen der genannten EU-Richtlinien zu Medizinprodukten durch die Bereitstellung einer Anleitung zu ergänzen, wie bestimmte Anforderungen erfüllt werden können. Wenn diese Hinweise von einem Hersteller befolgt werden, so liefern sie eine Annahme der Übereinstimmung mit den relevanten grundlegenden Anforderungen hinsichtlich der bereitzustellenden Information.
Die vorliegende Norm schließt keine Anforderungen an die Bereitstellung von Informationen für In-vitro-Diag¬nostika ein, die von anderen genannten Normen abgedeckt werden (siehe Literaturhinweise).
ANMERKUNG Sofern nationale Umstellungen der Richtlinien die Mittel festlegen, mit denen Informationen zur Verfügung zu stellen sind, führt die vorliegende Norm nicht zu einer teilweisen Aufhebung dieser Anforderungen für das bestimmte Land.
Informations fournies par le fabricant de dispositifs médicaux
La présente norme spécifie les exigences concernant les informations à fournir par un fabricant de dispositifs médicaux d’après la réglementation dictée par la Directive du Conseil 90/385/CEE relative aux dispositifs médicaux implantables actifs et par la Directive du Conseil 93/42/CEE concernant les dispositifs médicaux. Elle ne spécifie pas la langue à utiliser pour ces informations ni les moyens par lesquels les informations sont fournies. Elle a également pour but de venir compléter les exigences spécifiques des Directives UE sur les dispositifs médicaux citées en donnant des indications sur la manière dont certaines exigences peuvent être satisfaites. Si un fabricant suit ces indications, celles-ci laissent à présumer de la conformité aux exigences essentielles relatives à la fourniture d'informations.
La présente norme ne couvre pas les exigences concernant la fourniture d’informations pour les dispositifs médicaux de diagnostic in vitro qui font l'objet d'autres normes d'étiquetage (voir Bibliographie).
NOTE Lorsque des transpositions nationales des directives précisent les moyens par lesquels les informations doivent être fournies, la présente norme ne propose pas de dérogation à ces exigences pour un pays particulier.
