Medical electrical equipment - Part 2-16: Particular requirements for 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.

Part 2-16: Particular requirements for the basic safety and

essential performance of haemodialysis, haemodiafiltration

and haemofiltration equipment
FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of

patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International standard IEC 60601-2-16 has been prepared by IEC subcommittee 62D:
Electromedical equipment, of IEC technical committee 62: Electrical equipment in medical
practice.
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.
