(Main)Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices - Part 10: Adhesive coated nonwoven materials of polyolefines - Requirements and test methods
Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices - Part 10: Adhesive coated nonwoven materials of polyolefines - Requirements and test methods
This part of EN 868 provides test methods and values for sealable adhesive coated nonwoven materials of polyolefines, manufactured from nonwovens complying with EN 868-9 used for sterile barrier systems and/or packaging systems that are intended to maintain sterility of terminally sterilized medical devices to the point of use.
NOTE 1 The need for a protective packaging may be determined by the manufacturer and the user.
This part of EN 868 only introduces performance requirements and test methods that are specific to the products covered by this part of EN 868 but does not add nor modify the general requirements specified in EN ISO 11607-1.
As such, the particular requirements in 4.2 to 4.3 can be used to demonstrate compliance with one or more but not all of the requirements of EN ISO 11607-1.
NOTE 2 When additional materials are used inside the sterile barrier system in order to ease the organization, drying or aseptic presentation (e.g. inner wrap, container filter, indicators, packing lists, mats, instrument organizer sets, tray liners or an additional envelope around the medical device) then other requirements, including the determination of the acceptability of these materials during validation activities, may apply.
The materials specified in this part of EN 868 are intended for single use only.
Verpackungen für in der Endverpackung zu sterilisierende Medizinprodukte - Teil 10: Klebemittelbeschichtete Faservliesmaterialien aus Polyolefinen - Anforderungen und Prüfverfahren
Dieser Teil der EN 868 enthält Prüfverfahren und Werte für klebemittelbeschichtete Faservliesmaterialien aus Polyolefinen, hergestellt aus Faservliesmaterialien nach EN 868-9, und die dazu vorgesehen sind, als Sterilbarrieresysteme und/oder Verpackungssysteme die Sterilität von in der Endverpackung sterilisierten Medizinprodukten bis zum Anwendungszeitpunkt zu erhalten.
ANMERKUNG 1 Die Erfordernis für eine Schutzverpackung kann durch den Hersteller und den Anwender bestimmt werden.
Dieser Teil der EN 868 enthält lediglich Leistungsanforderungen und Prüfverfahren, die spezifisch für die Produkte nach diesem Teil von EN 868 sind, und ergänzt oder modifiziert jedoch nicht die in EN ISO 11607-1 festgelegten allgemeinen Anforderungen.
Die besonderen Anforderungen in 4.2 bis 4.3 können verwendet werden, um Übereinstimmung mit einer oder mehreren Anforderungen — aber nicht mit allen Anforderungen — der EN ISO 11607-1 nachzuweisen.
ANMERKUNG 2 Wenn zusätzliche Materialien innerhalb des Sterilbarrieresystems verwendet werden, um die Organisation, die Trocknung oder aseptische Präsentation zu erleichtern (z. B. Innenverpackung, Filter für Sterilisierbehälter, Indikatoren, Verpackungslisten, Unterlagen, Einsätze für Instrumente, Fächer oder eine zusätzliche Umhüllung für das Medizinprodukt), dann können andere Anforderungen, einschließlich die Bestimmung der Eignung dieser Materialien im Rahmen von Validierungsstudien gelten.
Die nach diesem Teil von EN 868 festgelegten Materialien sind nur für den einmaligen Gebrauch vorgesehen.

Introduction
The EN ISO 11607 series consists of two parts under the general title "Packaging for terminally sterilized
medical devices". Part 1 of this series specifies general requirements and test methods for materials,
preformed sterile barrier systems, sterile barrier systems and packaging systems that are intended to maintain
sterility of terminally sterilized medical devices to the point of use. Part 2 of this series specifies validation
requirements for forming, sealing and assembly processes.
Every sterile barrier system shall fulfil the requirements of EN ISO 11607-1.
The EN 868 series can be used to demonstrate compliance with one or more of the requirements specified in
EN ISO 11607-1.
During the revision of EN 868 parts 2 to 10 CEN/TC 102/WG 4 recognized Resolution CEN/BT 21/2003
relating to the implementation of the uncertainty of measurement concept in standards. Following this
Resolution and the corresponding guidance, CEN/TC 102/WG 4 has initiated a review of the test methods
needed to show compliance with the requirements specified in EN 868 parts 2 to 10 with the intention that the
information required by CEN/BT 21/2003 be available for inclusion in EN 868 parts 2 to 10 during one of their
next revisions.
CEN/TC 102/WG 4 also appreciates the initiatives of CEN with regard to the minimization of adverse
environmental impacts by standards. It was agreed that this subject should be given priority during the next
edition of the EN ISO 11607 series that is the basic reference for all parts of the EN 868 series.

1 Scope
This part of EN 868 provides test methods and values for sealable adhesive coated nonwoven materials of
polyolefines, manufactured from nonwovens complying with EN 868-9 used for sterile barrier systems and/or
packaging systems that are intended to maintain sterility of terminally sterilized medical devices to the point of
use.
NOTE 1 The need for a protective packaging may be determined by the manufacturer and the user.
This part of EN 868 only introduces performance requirements and test methods that are specific to the
products covered by this part of EN 868 but does not add nor modify the general requirements specified in
EN ISO 11607-1.
As such, the particular requirements in 4.2 to 4.3 can be used to demonstrate compliance with one or more
but not all of the requirements of EN ISO 11607-1.
NOTE 2 When additional materials are used inside the sterile barrier system in order to ease the organization, drying
or aseptic presentation (e.g. inner wrap, container filter, indicators, packing lists, mats, instrument organizer sets, tray
liners or an additional envelope around the medical device) then other requirements, including the determination of the
acceptability of these materials during validation activities, may apply.
The materials specified in this part of EN 868 are intended for single use only.
