Medical electrical equipment - Part 2-16: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of haemodialysis, haemodiafiltration and haemofiltration equipment

IEC 60601-2-16:2012 applies to the basic safety and essential performance of haemodialysis, haemodiafiltration and haemofiltration equipment. IEC 60601-2-16:2012 does not take into consideration the dialysis fluid control system of Haemodialysis equipment using regeneration of dialysis fluid and central delivery systems. It does however take into consideration the specific safety requirements of such haemodialysis equipment concerning electrical safety and patient safety. IEC 60601-2-16:2012 specifies the minimum safety requirements for haemodialysis equipment. These devices are intended for use either by medical staff or for use by the patient or other trained personnel under the supervision of medical expertise. IEC 60601-2-16:2012 includes all electromedical equipment that is intended to deliver a haemodialysis, haemodiafiltration and haemofiltration treatment to a patient suffering from kidney failure. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition of IEC 60601-2-16, published in 2008. This edition constitutes a technical revision. Changes since the previous edition include, among others, better adaptation of IEC 60601-1-8 and improvement of subclause 201.8.3.

Appareils électromédicaux - Partie 2-16: Exigences particulières pour la sécurité de base et les performances essentielles des appareils d'hémodialyse, d’hémodiafiltration et d’hémofiltration

La CEI 60601-2-16:2012 s'applique à la sécurité de base et aux performances essentielles des appareils d'hémodialyse, d'hémodiafiltration et d'hémofiltration. La CEI 60601-2-16:2012 ne prend pas en compte le système de contrôle du liquide de dialyse de l'appareil d'hémodialyse utilisant la régénération du liquide de dialyse et les systèmes de transmission centralisés. Toutefois, elle prend en compte les exigences de sécurité spécifiques de l'appareil d'hémodialyse concernant la sécurité électrique et la sécurité du patient. La CEI 60601-2-16:2012 spécifie les exigences minimales de sécurité relatives aux appareils d'hémodialyse. Ces appareils sont destinés à être utilisés soit par le personnel médical, soit par le patient, soit par d'autres personnes formées, sous le contrôle d'un personnel ayant une bonne compétence médicale. La présente Norme internationale s'applique à tout appareil electromédical destiné à fournir un traitement d'hémodialyse, d'hémodiafiltration et d'hémofiltration à un patient souffrant d'insuffisance rénale. Cette quatrième édition annule et remplace la troisième édition de la CEI 60601-2-16, publiée en 2008. La présente édition constitue une révision technique. Les évolutions par rapport à l'édition précédente comprennent, entre autres, une meilleure adaptation de la CEI 60601-1-8 et amélioration du paragraphe 201.8.3.

Medicinska električna oprema - 2-16. del: Posebne zahteve za osnovno varnost in bistvene lastnosti opreme za kemodializo, kemodiafiltracijo in kemofiltracijo

Ta mednarodni standard se uporablja za OSNOVNO VARNOST in BISTVENE LASTNOSTI OPREME ZA KEMODIALIZO, KEMODIAFILTRACIJO IN KEMOFILTRACIJO (v nadaljevanju: OPREMA ZA KEMODIALIZO).
Ta mednarodni standard ne zajema nadzornega sistema za DIALIZNO TEKOČINO OPREME ZA KEMODIALIZO, ki uporablja regeneracijo DIALIZNE TEKOČINE in OSREDNJE SISTEME DOVAJANJA. Zajema pa specifične varnostne zahteve OPREME ZA KEMODIALIZO v povezavi z električno varnostjo in varnostjo PACIENTA. Ta mednarodni standard navaja minimalne varnostne zahteve OPREME ZA KEMODIALIZO. Te naprave so namenjene uporabi zdravniškega osebja oziroma PACIENTA ali drugega usposobljenega osebja pod nadzorom oseb s strokovnim medicinskim znanjem.
Ta mednarodni standard vključuje ELEKTROMEDICINSKO OPREMO za KEMODIALIZO, KEMODIAFILTRACIJO in KEMOFILTRACIJO, namenjeno PACIENTOM z odpovedjo ledvic.
Posebne zahteve v tem mednarodnem standardu ne veljajo za:
– ZUNAJTELESNE OBTOKE;
– DIALIZATORJE;
– KONCENTRATE DIALIZNE TEKOČINE;
– opremo za pripravo vode;
– opremo za PERITONEALNO DIALIZO (glejte standard IEC 60601-2-39).
Če je točka ali podtočka namenjena samo obravnavi ELEKTROMEDICINSKE OPREME ali ELEKTROMEDICINSKIH SISTEMOV, bo to zapisano v naslovu in vsebini točke ali podtočke. Če ni zapisano, točka ali podtočka obravnava ELEKTROMEDICINSKO OPREMO in ELEKTROMEDICINSKE SISTEME. Posebne zahteve tega standarda ne vključujejo temeljnih TVEGANJ pri nameravani fiziološki funkciji ELEKTROMEDICINSKE OPREME in SISTEMOV, ki spadajo na področje tega standarda, razen v točkah 7.2.13 in 8.4.1 standarda IEC 60601-1.
