Rescue systems - Transportation of incubators - Part 2: System requirements

This European Standard specifies the requirements for a transport incubator system needed for care and treatment of infants, used in emergency or planned transport.
It specifies the particular requirements needed to ensure the proper function of equipment during transportation (e.g. monitors, respirators, infusion pumps, extra corporeal lung support- (ECLS-) systems, gas supply) and to provide safe transportation for infants and operators.
This European Standard also stipulates that the equipment or systems shall not interfere with the functions of the ambulance providing transportation.
This European Standard does not give requirements for the vehicles, crafts, devices or incubators as such, these requirements are found in other standards. However, transport incubators are normally combined with other equipment to form a transport incubator system.

Rettungssysteme - Inkubatortransport - Teil 2: Anforderungen an Transportsysteme

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen an ein Inkubatortransportsystem für die Pflege und Behandlung von Säuglingen fest, die bei Notfall- oder geplanten Transporten erforderlich sind. Sie legt die besonderen Anforderungen fest, die zur Sicherstellung der einwandfreien Funktion der Ausrüstung (z. B. Überwachungsgeräte, Beatmungsgeräte, Infusionspumpen, Systeme zur extrakorporalen Lungenunterstützung (en: extra corporeal lung supportsystem, ECLS), Versorgung mit Gasen) während des Transports und für einen sicheren Transport von Säuglingen und Personal gestellt werden müssen. In dieser Europäischen Norm ist auch festgelegt, dass die Ausrüstungen oder Systeme nicht die Funktionen des Rettungsdienstfahrzeugs behindern dürfen. In dieser Europäischen Norm sind keine Anforderungen an die Fahrzeuge, Luftfahrzeuge, Geräte oder Inkubatoren selbst festgelegt, diese Anforderungen finden sich in anderen Normen. Transportinkubatoren sind jedoch normalerweise mit anderen Geräten verbunden und bilden ein „Inkubatortransportsystem“.

Systèmes de sauvetage - Transport d'incubateurs - Partie 2: Exigences relatives au système

Reševalni sistemi - Prevoz inkubatorjev - 2. del: Zahteve za sistem

Ta evropski standard določa zahteve za transportni inkubatorski sistem, potreben za nego in zdravljenje dojenčkov, ki se uporablja v urgentnem ali načrtovanem prevozu. Določa posebne zahteve, potrebne za zagotovitev pravilnega delovanja opreme med prevozom (npr. zasloni, respiratorji, infuzijske črpalke, sistemi zunajtelesne mehanske podpore pljuč in srca (ECLS-), oskrba s plinom) ter zagotavljanje varnega prevoza za dojenčke in kirurge.
Ta evropski standard prav tako določa, da oprema ali sistemi ne smejo motiti funkcij reševalnega vozila med prevozom.
Ta evropski standard ne podaja zahtev za vozila, plovila, naprave ali inkubatorje kot take; te zahteve so v drugih standardih. Vendar so transportni inkubatorji po navadi kombinirani z drugo opremo, da tvorijo »transportni inkubatorski sistem«.
