Respiratory therapy equipment - Part 2: Tubing and connectors

This part of EN 13544 specifies requirements for tubing to be used with equipment for the therapeutic
administration of respirable gases in domiciliary, ambulance and hospital practice including the interface to the
equipment i.e. nipples and screw threaded connectors. This tubing is mainly used with oxygen, air or mixtures of
these gases.
The interface specifications are given to ensure interchangeability of respiratory therapy equipment thereby
enabling patients to receive continuous treatment in all these clinical situations.
Weight-bearing screw-threaded connectors are specified for use at the outlet of e.g. flowmeters to which devices
such as humidifiers or nebulizers can be attached.
NOTE This standard does not specify the devices where these connectors have to be used. It is expected that specific
device standards will specify the devices where these connectors are going to the used e.g. EN ISO 10651-4, EN 738-1 and
EN 13220.

Atemtherapiegeräte - Teil 2: Schlauchsysteme und Verbindungsstücke

Dieser Teil von EN 13544 legt die Anforderungen an Schlauchsysteme fest, die für Geräte zur therapeutischen
Verabreichung von Beatmungsgasen bei der häuslichen Pflege, ambulanten Behandlung und in der
Krankenhauspraxis verwendet werden. Festgelegt sind auch die Schnittstellen zu diesen Geräten, z. B. Nippel
und Schraubverbindungen. Diese Schlauchsysteme werden hauptsächlich für Sauerstoff, Luft oder Gemische
dieser Gase verwendet.
Schnittstellen wurden festgelegt, um die Austauschbarkeit von Geräten für die Atmungstherapie sicherzustellen
und damit eine kontinuierliche Behandlung von Patienten in allen klinischen Situationen zu
ermöglichen.
Gewichtstragende Schraubverbindungen wurden zur Verwendung für den Ausgang, z. B. von Durchflussmessgeräten,
festgelegt, an denen Geräte wie Anfeuchter oder Vernebler angeschlossen werden können.
ANMERKUNG In dieser Norm werden nicht die Geräte festgelegt, für die diese Verbindungen zu verwenden sind. Es
wird erwartet, dass spezielle Produktnormen die Geräte festlegen, für die diese Verbindungsstücke zu verwenden sind,
z. B. EN ISO 10651-4, EN 738-1 und EN 13220.
