Cardiovascular implants - Cardiac valve prostheses - Part 3: Heart valve substitutes implanted by transcatheter techniques (ISO 5840-3:2021)

This document is applicable to all devices intended for implantation as a transcatheter heart valve substitute.
This document is applicable to transcatheter heart valve substitutes and to the accessory devices, packaging and labelling required for their implantation and for determining the appropriate size of heart valve substitute to be implanted.
This document establishes an approach for verifying/validating the design and manufacture of a transcatheter heart valve substitute through risk management. The selection of appropriate verification/validation tests and methods are to be derived from the risk assessment. The tests can include those to assess the physical, chemical, biological and mechanical properties of heart valve substitutes and of their materials and components. The tests can also include those for preclinical in vivo evaluation and clinical evaluation of the finished heart valve substitute.
This document defines operational conditions and performance requirements for transcatheter heart valve substitutes where adequate scientific and/or clinical evidence exists for their justification.
This document includes considerations for implantation of a transcatheter heart valve substitute inside a pre-existing prosthetic device (e.g. valve-in-valve and valve-in-ring configurations).

Herz- und Gefäßimplantate - Herzklappenprothesen - Teil 3: Durch minimal-invasive Methoden implantierter Herzklappenersatz (ISO 5840-3:2021)

Dieses Dokument ist auf alle Medizinprodukte anwendbar, die für die Implantation als Transkatheter-Herzklappenersatz vorgesehen sind.
Dieses Dokument ist auf Transkatheter-Herzklappenersatz und dessen Zubehörteile anwendbar und gilt darüber hinaus für die Verpackung und die für die Implantation und Bestimmung der geeigneten Größe des zu implantierenden Herzklappenersatzes erforderliche Kennzeichnung.
Dieses Dokument legt eine Herangehensweise zur Verifizierung/Validierung des Designs und der Herstellung eines Transkatheter-Herzklappenersatzes auf der Grundlage des Risikomanagements fest. Die Auswahl der geeigneten Prüfungen und Verfahren der Verifizierung/Validierung muss sich aus der Risiko¬beurteilung ableiten. Zu diesen Prüfungen können solche zur Beurteilung der physikalischen, chemischen, biologischen und mechanischen Eigenschaften eines Herzklappenersatzes und von dessen Werkstoffen und Bauteilen gehören. Diese Prüfungen können auch die vorklinische In vivo-Bewertung und die klinische Bewertung des fertigen Herzklappenersatzes einschließen.
Dieses Dokument legt Betriebsbedingungen für und Leistungsanforderungen an Transkatheter-Herz-klappenersatz fest, sofern angemessene wissenschaftliche und/oder klinische Nachweise für deren Begründung vorliegen.
Dieses Dokument enthält Betrachtungen zur Implantation eines Transkatheter-Herzklappenersatzes in eine bereits vorhandene Prothese (z. B. Klappe-in-Klappe- und Klappe-in-Ring-Konfigurationen).

Implants cardiovasculaires - Prothèses valvulaires - Partie 3: Valves cardiaques de substitution implantées par des techniques transcathéter (ISO 5840-3:2021)

Le présent document s'applique à tous les dispositifs destinés à être implantés en tant que prothèse valvulaire par voie transcathéter.
Le présent document s'applique aux prothèses valvulaires implantées par transcathéter ainsi qu'aux dispositifs auxiliaires, à l'emballage et à l'étiquetage exigés pour leur implantation. Il s'applique également à la détermination de la taille appropriée de la prothèse valvulaire à implanter.
Le présent document établit une approche permettant de vérifier/valider la conception et la fabrication d'une prothèse valvulaire implantée par transcathéter dans une optique de gestion du risque. La sélection des méthodes et des essais de vérification/validation appropriés se fait à partir de l'appréciation du risque. Des essais peuvent être destinés à évaluer les propriétés physiques, chimiques, biologiques et mécaniques de prothèses valvulaires ainsi que celles de leurs matériaux et composants. Les essais peuvent également englober les essais destinés à l'évaluation préclinique in vivo et à l'évaluation clinique des prothèses valvulaires à l'état fini.
Le présent document définit les conditions de fonctionnement et les exigences de performance relatives aux prothèses valvulaires implantées par transcathéter lorsqu'il existe une preuve scientifique et/ou clinique adéquate pour les justifier.
Le présent document comprend des considérations relatives à l'implantation par transcathéter d'une prothèse valvulaire dans un dispositif prothétique préexistant (par exemple les configurations «valve-in-valve» et «valve-in-ring»).

Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are

described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the

different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).

This document defines operational conditions and performance requirements for transcatheter heart

valve substitutes where adequate scientific and/or clinical evidence exists for their justification.

This document includes considerations for implantation of a transcatheter heart valve substitute inside

a pre-existing prosthetic device (e.g. valve-in-valve and valve-in-ring configurations).

root, LA, LAA, LVOT and the subvalvular apparatus);

g) the ability to conform or interact with previously implanted device (e.g. surgical valve, annuloplasty

ring, transcatheter valve, valve docking device), if applicable;
