Introduction
This document specifies requirements for VENTILATORY SUPPORT EQUIPMENT that is intended for use in the
HOME HEALTHCARE ENVIRONMENT for PATIENTS who are not dependent for ventilation for their life support.
VENTILATORY SUPPORT EQUIPMENT is frequently used in locations where SUPPLY MAINS is not reliable.
VENTILATORY SUPPORT EQUIPMENT is often supervised by non‐healthcare personnel (LAY OPERATORS) with
varying levels of training. VENTILATORY SUPPORT EQUIPMENT complying with this document can be used
elsewhere (i.e. in healthcare facilities).
Varying levels of ventilatory support are needed for PATIENTS who have stable ventilatory needs and in
some cases, changing needs as their disease worsens. This document addresses PATIENTS who typically
have severe enough respiratory function to prohibit certain activities that the PATIENT might normally
pursue, and to interfere with daily living, occurring in association with measurements of respiratory
mechanics or gas exchange that are markedly abnormal. This is best characterised by lung functions
[3]
worse than
2
— FEV/FVC < 70 %, or
1
— FEV < 50 % predicted
1
where
FEV is the forced expiratory volume in 1 s, and
1
FVC is the forced vital capacity.
Examples of diseases that require ventilation support are severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary
[4]
Disease (COPD), Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) , severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia and
muscular dystrophy. VENTILATORY SUPPORT EQUIPMENT intended for this group of PATIENTS typically can
require TECHNICAL ALARM CONDITIONS in the event that ESSENTIAL PERFORMANCE is absent. The most fragile
of these PATIENTS would likely experience injury, but not serious injury or death, with the loss of this
artificial ventilation. For these PATIENTS, it is likely that ventilatory support is needed during waking
hours while PATIENTS are moving inside or outside the home in order to facilitate mobility and
functional independence in the activities of daily living.
This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
In this document, the following print types are used:
— requirements and definitions: roman type;
— test specifications: italic type;
— informative material appearing outside of tables, such as notes, examples and references: in smaller type.
Normative text of tables is also in a smaller type.
3
— TERMS DEFINED IN CLAUSE 3 OF THE GENERAL STANDARD , IN THIS DOCUMENT OR AS NOTED: SMALL CAPITALS.
In referring to the structure of this document, the term
— “clause” means one of the five numbered divisions within the table of contents, inclusive of all
subdivisions (e.g. Clause 201 includes subclauses 201.7, 201.8, etc.);

2
This is also known as the Tiffeneau‐Pinelli index.

— “subclause” means a numbered subdivision of a clause (e.g. 201.7, 201.8 and 201.9 are all
subclauses of Clause 201).
References to clauses within this document are preceded by the term “Clause” followed by the clause
number. References to subclauses within this particular document are by number only.
In this document, the conjunctive “or” is used as an “inclusive or” so a statement is true if any
combination of the conditions is true.
The verbal forms used in this document conform to usage described in ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. For
the purposes of this document, the auxiliary verb:
— “shall” means that compliance with a requirement or a test is mandatory for compliance with this
document;
— “should” means that compliance with a requirement or a test is recommended but is not mandatory
for compliance with this document;
— “may” is used to describe permission (e.g. a permissible way to achieve compliance with a
requirement or test);
— "can" is used to describe a possibility or capability;
— "must" is used express an external constraint.
An asterisk (*) as the first character of a title or at the beginning of a paragraph or table title indicates
that there is guidance or rationale related to that item in Annex AA.
The ISO and IEC 80601 family of documents are also parts of the IEC 60601 family of documents.

Part 2‐80:
Particular requirements for basic safety and essential
performance of ventilatory support equipment for ventilatory
insufficiency
201.1 Scope, object and related standards
IEC 60601‐1:2005+AMD1:2012, Clause 1, applies, except as follows:
201.1.1 * Scope
Replacement:
This document applies to the BASIC SAFETY and ESSENTIAL PERFORMANCE of VENTILATORY SUPPORT
EQUIPMENT, as defined in 201.3.205, for VENTILATORY INSUFFICIENCY, as defined in 201.3.204, hereafter
also referred to as ME EQUIPMENT, in combination with its ACCESSORIES:
— intended for use in the HOME HEALTHCARE ENVIRONMENT;
— intended for use by a LAY OPERATOR;
— intended for use with PATIENTS who have VENTILATORY INSUFFICIENCY or failure, the most fragile of
which would likely experience injury with the loss of this artificial ventilation;
— intended for TRANSIT‐OPERABLE use;
— not intended for PATIENTS who are dependent on artificial ventilation for their immediate life
support.
EXAMPLE 1 PATIENTS with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), moderate
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia or muscular dystrophy.
NOTE 1 In the HOME HEALTHCARE ENVIRONMENT, the SUPPLY MAINS is often not reliable.
NOTE 2 Such VENTILATORY SUPPORT EQUIPMENT can also be used in non‐critical care applications of professional
health care facilities.
This document is also applicable to those ACCESSORIES intended by their MANUFACTURER to be connected
to the VENTILATOR BREATHING SYSTEM of VENTILATORY SUPPORT EQUIPMENT for VENTILATORY INSUFFICIENCY,
