Medical vehicles and their equipment - Road ambulances
This European Standard specifies requirements for the design, testing, performance and equipping of road ambulances used for the transport and care of patients. It contains requirements for the patient's compartment. This European Standard does not cover the requirements for approval and registration of the vehicle and the training of the staff which is the responsibility of the authority/authorities in the country where the ambulance is to be registered. This European Standard is applicable to road ambulances capable of transporting at least one person on a stretcher. Requirements are specified for categories of road ambulances based in increasing order of the level of treatment that can be carried out. These are the patient transport ambulance (types A1 A2), the emergency ambulance (type B) and the mobile intensive care unit (type C). This European Standard gives general requirements for medical devices carried in road ambulances and used therein and outside hospitals and clinics in situations where the ambient conditions can differ from normal indoor conditions.
Rettungsdienstfahrzeuge und deren Ausrüstung - Krankenkraftwagen
Diese Europäische Norm legt Anforderungen, Prüfung und Ausrüstung für den Transport und die Sicherheit
von Patienten in Krankenkraftwagen fest. Sie enthält Anforderungen an den Krankenraum.
Diese Europäische Norm enthält keine Anforderungen für die Zulassung und Registrierung von Fahrzeugen
und die Ausbildung des Personals. Dafür ist die Behörde des Landes zuständig, in der der Krankenkraftwagen
registriert ist.
Die Europäische Norm gilt für Krankenkraftwagen, in denen mindestens eine Person liegend auf einer
Krankentrage transportiert werden kann.
Die Anforderungen werden für drei Kategorien von Krankenkraftwagen festgelegt, die sich in aufsteigender
Ordnung auf den Umfang der Behandlung im Fahrzeug beziehen. Es sind dies Krankentransportwagen
(Typ A1, A2), Notfallkrankenwagen (Typ B) und Rettungswagen (Typ C).
Diese Europäische Norm enthält allgemeine Anforderungen an Medizinprodukte (Geräte), die in
Krankenkraftwagen befördert und in ihnen sowie außerhalb von Krankenhäusern und Kliniken verwendet
werden, wo die Umweltbedingungen sich von üblichen Innenraumbedingungen unterscheiden können.
Véhicules de transport sanitaire et leurs équipements - Ambulances routières
La présente Norme européenne définit les exigences concernant la conception, les méthodes d'essai,
les performances et l'armement des ambulances routières utilisées pour le transport et le traitement des patients.
Elle comporte des exigences relatives à la cellule sanitaire.
La présente Norme européenne ne couvre pas les exigences pour l’approbation et l’immatriculation du véhicule
ni la formation du personnel dont la responsabilité incombe à l’autorité/aux autorités du pays dans lequel l’ambulance
doit être immatriculée.
La présente Norme européenne s'applique aux ambulances routières capables de transporter au moins un patient
sur un brancard.
Des exigences sont définies pour des catégories d'ambulances routières basées sur l'ordre croissant du niveau
de soins pouvant être prodigués à bord. Ce sont l'ambulance pour le transport des patients (types A1 et A2),
l'ambulance de soins d'urgence (type B) et l'unité mobile de soins intensifs (type C).
La présente Norme européenne énonce des exigences générales pour les dispositifs médicaux transportés et utilisés
dans les ambulances routières et en dehors des hôpitaux et des cliniques dans des situations où les conditions
ambiantes peuvent différer de celles normales en intérieur.
Medicinska vozila in pripadajoča oprema - Reševalna vozila
Ta evropski standard določa zahteve za zasnovo, preskušanje, delovanje in opremljanje reševalnih vozil, ki se uporabljajo za prevoz in oskrbo bolnikov. Vsebuje zahteve za bolnikov predelek. Ta evropski standard ne zajema zahtev za potrjevanje in registracijo vozila ter usposabljanja osebja, kar je odgovornost organa/organov v državi, kjer se vozilo registrira. Ta evropski standard velja za reševalna vozila, ki lahko prevažajo vsaj eno osebo na nosilih. Zahteve za kategorije reševalnih vozil so določene na osnovi naraščajočega zaporedja stopnje zdravljenja, ki se lahko izvaja. To so reševalno vozilo za prevoz bolnikov (tipa A1 A2), nujno reševalno vozilo (tip B) in mobilna enota za intenzivno nego (tip C). Ta evropski standard podaja splošne zahteve za medicinske pripomočke v reševalnih vozilih, ki se uporabljajo znotraj in zunaj bolnišnic ter klinik v razmerah, ko so pogoji okolja lahko drugačni od normalnih pogojev v zaprtih prostorih.
