Medical electrical equipment - Part 2-4: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of cardiac defibrillators

IEC 60601-2-4:2010 establishes particular basic safety and essential performance requirements for cardiac defibrillators. This third edition cancels and replaces the second edition published in 2002. This edition constitutes a technical revision, revised to structurally align it with IEC 60601-1:2005 and to implement the decision of IEC SC 62A that the clause numbering structure of particular standards written to IEC 60601-1:2005 would adhere to the form specified in ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2:2004. The aim of this third edition is to bring this particular standard up to date with reference to the third edition of the general standard through reformatting and technical changes.

Medizinische elektrische Geräte - Teil 2-4: Besondere Festlegungen für die Sicherheit einschließlich der wesentlichen Leistungsmerkmale von Defibrillatoren

Appareils électromédicaux - Partie 2-4: Exigences particulières pour la sécurité de base et les performances essentielles des défibrillateurs cardiaques

La CEI 60601-2-4:2010 établit des exigences particulières de sécurité de base et de performances essentielles pour les défibrillateurs cardiaques. Cette troisième édition annule et remplace la deuxième édition publiée en 2002. La présente édition constitue une révision technique dont la structure est alignée sur la CEI 60601-1:2005, et est destinée à mettre en oeuvre la décision du SC 62A de la CEI selon laquelle la structure de numérotation des articles des normes particulières rédigées selon la CEI 60601-1:2005 respecterait la forme spécifiée dans les directives ISO/CEI, partie 2:2004. Cette troisième édition est destinée à mettre à jour la présente norme particulière par rapport à la troisième édition de la norme générale par une nouvelle mise en forme et des modifications techniques.

Medicinska električna oprema - 2-4. del: Posebne zahteve za osnovno varnost in bistvene lastnosti srčnih defibrilatorjev

Ta mednarodni standard velja za OSNOVNO VARNOST in BISTVENE LASTNOSTI SRČNIH DEFIBLIRATORJEV, v nadaljevanju ME OPREME. Če bo točka ali podtočka izrecno namenjena samo uporabi za ME OPREMO ali samo za ME SISTEME, bosta naslov in vsebina te točke ali podtočke to tudi navedla. Sicer točka in podtočka veljata za ustrezno ME OPREMO in ME SISTEME. NEVARNOSTI, ki so del fiziološkega delovanja ME OPREME ali ME SISTEMOV v okviru uporabe tega standarda, niso zajete s posebnimi zahtevami tega standarda, razen v točkah 7.2.13 in 8.4.1 splošnega standarda. Ta določeni standard ne velja za vsajene defibrilatorje, DEFIBLIRATORJE z daljinskim upravljanjem, zunanje transkutane srčne spodbujevalnike ali ločene samostojne srčne monitorje (ki so standardizirani z IEC 60601-2-27). Srčni monitorji, ki uporabljajo ločene elektrode ECG za spremljanje, niso v okviru uporabe tega standarda, razen če se uporabljajo izključno za zaznavo prepoznave ritma AED ali zaznave utripa za sinhronizirano kardioverzijo. Tehnologija defibrilatorskih valovnih oblik se hitro razvija. Objavljene študije navajajo, da se učinkovitost valovnih oblik razlikuje. Izbira določene valovne oblike, vključno z obliko vala, dobavljeno energijo, učinkovitostjo in varnostjo, je bila izrecno izključena iz uporabe tega standarda. Vendar so bili zaradi kritične pomembnosti terapevtske valovne oblike utemeljitvi, ki obravnava razloge za valovno obliko in njeno izbiro, dodani komentarji.
