Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM) - Short Range Devices (SRD) - Low Power Active Medical Implants (LP-AMI) operating in the frequency range 2 483,5 MHz to 2 500 MHz - Part 1: Technical characteristics and test methods
The present document covers, for Low Power Active Medical Implants (LP-AMI), and associated Peripherals (LP-AMI-P) used in an Active Medical Implant Communications System (AMICS), the required characteristics considered necessary to efficiently use the available spectrum and serve the interests of patients with implanted devices. The specifications contained in the present document were developed to ensure that the health and safety of the patients that are using this equipment under the direction of medical practitioners is protected. Of particular importance is the inclusion of spectrum monitoring and access requirements designed to significantly reduce any interference potential between AMICS operating in the band or between AMICS and other primary or secondary users of the band. Also included in the present document is the capability of Low Duty Cycle/Low Power Access in the frequency band. An AIMD is regulated under the AIMD Directive 90/385/EEC [i.7]: radio parts contained therein (referred to herein as LP-AMI, and LP-AMI-P for associated peripheral devices) are regulated under the Directive 1999/5/EC [i.1] (R&TTE Directive). It is intended that the present document applies to operation in the band 2 483,5 MHz to 2 500 MHz that devices that can also operate in spectrum outside this band also meet any applicable requirements for operation in such bands. The present document contains the technical characteristics for LP-AMI and associated peripherals radio equipment which is also addressed by CEPT/ERC/REC 70-03 [i.2] and annex 12 band f to that document. It does not necessarily include all the characteristics, which may be required by a user, nor does it necessarily represent the optimum performance achievable. It applies to LP-AMI and associated peripherals operating in the band 2 483,5 MHz to 2 500 MHz:
for telecommand and telemetry to/from an LP-AMI in a patient's body to LP-AMI-P or between these equipments;
for telecommand and telemetry to/from an LP-AMI to another LP-AMI within the human body;
with or without an integral antenna; and/or
with an antenna connection provided only for the purpose of connecting an external dedicated antenna. The present document covers requirements for radiated emissions above 30 MHz.
Elektromagnetna združljivost in zadeve v zvezi z radijskim spektrom (ERM) - Naprave kratkega dosega (SRD) - Aktivni medicinski vsadki majhnih moči (LP-AMI), ki delujejo v frekvenčnem območju od 2483,5 MHz do 2500 MHz - 1. del: Tehnične karakteristike in preskusne metode
Ta dokument zajema zahtevane karakteristike aktivnih medicinskih vsadkov majhnih moči (LP-AMI) in pripadajočih perifernih naprav (LP-AMI-P) za uporabo v komunikacijskem sistemu aktivnih medicinskih vsadkov (AMICS), ki se štejejo za nujne za učinkovito uporabo razpoložljivega spektra in so v interesu bolnikov z vsadki. Specifikacije iz tega dokumenta so bile pripravljene za varovanje zdravja in varnosti bolnikov, ki uporabljajo te naprave po zdravnikovih navodilih. Posebno pomembne so zahteve za spremljanje spektra in dostop, ki so namenjene za pomembno zmanjšanje morebitne možnosti motenja komunikacijskega sistema aktivnih medicinskih vsadkov, ki deluje v pasu, ali motenja med komunikacijskim sistemom aktivnih medicinskih vsadkov in drugimi primarnimi ali sekundarnimi uporabniki pasu. Ta dokument zajema tudi možnost nizkega obratovalnega ciklusa/dostopa z nizko porabo v frekvenčnem pasu. Aktivne medicinske vsadke ureja Direktiva 90/385/EGS [i.7] o približevanju zakonodaje držav članic o aktivnih medicinskih pripomočkih za vsaditev: radijske dele, ki jih zajema (v tem besedilu: medicinski vsadki majhnih moči in pripadajoče periferne naprave), ureja Direktiva 1999/5/ES [i.1] (direktiva R&TTE). Ta dokument naj bi se uporabljal za delovanje v pasu 2483,5 MHz do 2500 MHz; pripomočki, ki lahko delujejo tudi v spektru zunaj tega pasu, morajo prav tako izpolnjevati morebitne veljavne zahteve za delovanje v teh pasovih. Ta dokument zajema tehnične karakteristike za radijsko opremo za medicinske vsadke majhnih moči in pripadajoče periferne radijske opreme, ki je obravnavana tudi v standardu CEPT/ERC/REC 70-03 [i.2] in delu f dodatka 12 k navedenemu dokumentu. Ne vključuje nujno vseh karakteristik, ki bi jih lahko potreboval uporabnik, in ne predstavlja nujno najboljšega možnega delovanja. Uporablja se za medicinske vsadke majhnih moči in pripadajoče periferne naprave, ki delujejo v pasu od 2483,5 MHz to 2500 MHz:
za daljinsko vodenje in telemetrijo do/od medicinskega vsadka majhnih moči v bolnikovem telesu ali pripadajoče periferne naprave ali med njima;
za daljinsko vodenje in telemetrijo do/od medicinskega vsadka majhnih moči do drugega medicinskega vsadka majhnih moči v človeškem telesu;
z vgrajeno anteno ali brez nje in/ali
z antensko povezavo samo zaradi povezave z zunanjo ustrezno anteno. Ta dokument zajema zahteve za elektromagnetno sevanje nad 30 MHz.
