Implants for surgery - Active implantable medical devices - Part 1: General requirements for safety, marking and for information to be provided by the manufacturer

This part of EN 45502 specifies requirements that are generally applicable to ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL
DEVICES.
NOTE 1 For particular types of ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES, these general requirements are supplemented or
modified by the requirements of particular standards which form additional parts of this European Standard.
The tests that are specified in EN 45502 are type tests and are to be carried out on samples of an ACTIVE
IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE to show compliance.
This part of EN 45502 is applicable not only to ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES that are electrically
powered but also to those powered by other energy sources (for example by gas pressure or by springs).
This part of EN 45502 is also applicable to some non-implantable parts and accessories of the ACTIVE
IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES.
NOTE 2 The device that is commonly referred to as an ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE can be a single device, a
combination of devices, or a combination of a device or devices and one or more accessories. Not all of these parts are
required to be either partially or totally implantable, but there is a need to specify some requirements of non-implantable
parts and accessories if they could affect the safety or performance of the implantable device.
NOTE 3 In this part of EN 45502, terms printed in small capital letters are used as defined in Clause 3. Where a defined
term is used as a qualifier in another term, it is not printed in small capital letters unless the concept thus qualified is also
defined.

Introduction This European Standard specifies general requirements for ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES to provide basic assurance of safety for both patients and users. To minimize the likelihood of a device being misused, this European Standard also details comprehensive requirements for MARKINGS and for other information to be supplied as part of the documentation with any ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE. For particular types of ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE, the general requirements can be supplemented or modified by the requirements of other parts of EN 45502. A requirement of a particular part of EN 45502 takes priority over the corresponding requirement of this general part of EN 45502. Where particular parts of EN 45502 exist, this general standard of EN 45502 is not intended to be used alone. Special care is required when applying this general standard part of EN 45502 alone to ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES for which no particular part of EN 45502 has yet been published.

1 Scope This part of EN 45502 specifies requirements that are generally applicable to ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES. NOTE 1 For particular types of ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES, these general requirements are supplemented or modified by the requirements of particular standards which form additional parts of this European Standard. The tests that are specified in EN 45502 are type tests and are to be carried out on samples of an ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE to show compliance. This part of EN 45502 is applicable not only to ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES that are electrically powered but also to those powered by other energy sources (for example by gas pressure or by springs). This part of EN 45502 is also applicable to some non-implantable parts and accessories of the ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES. NOTE 2 The device that is commonly referred to as an ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE can be a single device, a combination of devices, or a combination of a device or devices and one or more accessories. Not all of these parts are required to be either partially or totally implantable, but there is a need to specify some requirements of non-implantable parts and accessories if they could affect the safety or performance of the implantable device.

NOTE
Other subclauses in this standard require compliance with some subclauses of EN 60601-1:2006 and its A1:2013 even for non-implantable parts that are not electrically powered. Compliance is checked by assessment of the test report and the RISK ANALYSIS provided by the MANUFACTURER. 5.2 General requirements for software Software of an ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE or software that falls within the definition of an ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE shall be designed according to software life cycle process activities compliant with EN 62304:2006 and shall be validated. Compliance is checked by assessment of the software life cycle PROCESS in accordance with EN 62304:2006, 1.4 and assessment of the VALIDATION report provided by the MANUFACTURER.

65 Introduction
66 This European Standard specifies general requirements for ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES, to
67 provide basic assurance of safety for both patients and users.
68 To minimize the likelihood of a device being misused, this standard also details comprehensive
69 requirements for MARKINGS and for other information to be supplied as part of the documentation with
70 any ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE.
71 For particular types of ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE, the general requirements are
72 supplemented or modified by the requirements of particular standards as separate parts of EN 45502.
73 A requirement of such a particular standard takes priority over the corresponding requirement of this
74 general standard. Where particular standards exist, this general standard should not be used alone.
75 Special care is required when applying this general standard alone to ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL
76 DEVICES for which no particular standard has yet been published.

77 1 Scope
78 This Part 1 of EN 45502 specifies requirements that are generally applicable to ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE
79 MEDICAL DEVICES.
80 NOTE 1 For particular types of ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES, these general requirements are supplemented or
81 modified by the requirements of particular standards which form additional parts of this European Standard.
82 The tests that are specified in EN 45502 are type tests and are to be carried out on samples of an
83 ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE to show compliance.
84 This Part 1 of EN 45502 is applicable not only to ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES that are
85 electrically powered but also to those powered by other energy sources (for example by gas pressure
86 or by springs).
87 This Part 1 of EN 45502 is also applicable to some non-implantable parts and accessories of the
88 ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES.
89 NOTE 2 The terminology used in this European Standard is intended to be consistent with the terminology of Directive
90 90/385/EEC.
91 NOTE 3 In this European Standard, terms printed in small capital letters are used as defined in Clause 3. Where a defined
92 term is used as a qualifier in another term, it is not printed in small capital letters unless the concept thus qualified is also
93 defined.
