NF EN 740/A1

For the purposes of ISO 8835-4:2004, the requirements in IEC 60601-1:1988, Clause 1 apply except as follows. Addition: ISO 8835-4:2004 specifies particular requirements for the essential performance of anaesthetic vapour delivery devices (AVDDs), as defined in 3.1. ISO 8835-4:2004 is applicable to AVDDs which are a component of an anaesthetic system and are intended to be continuously operator-attended. ISO 8835-4:2004 gives specific requirements for AVDDs which are supplementary to the applicable general requirements in IEC 60601-2-13. ISO 8835-4:2004 is not applicable to AVDDs intended for use with flammable anaesthetics, as determined by Annex CC, and AVDDs intended for use within anaesthetic breathing systems (e.g. draw-over vaporizers). The requirements of ISO 8835-4:2004 which replace or modify the requirements of IEC 60601-1:1988 and its Amendments 1 (1991) and 2 (1995) are intended to take precedence over the corresponding general requirements.

ISO 8835-5:2004 specifies particular requirements for the essential performance of anaesthetic ventilators (as defined in 3.1). ISO 8835-5:2004 is applicable to anaesthetic ventilators which are always a component of an anaesthetic system and are intended to be continuously attended by an operator. ISO 8835-5:2004 is not applicable to anaesthetic ventilators intended for use with flammable anaesthetics, as determined by Annex BB. The requirements of ISO 8835-5:2004 which replace or modify the requirements of IEC 60601-1:1988 and its Amendments 1 (1991) and 2 (1995) are intended to take precedence over the corresponding general requirements. This Scope is additional to the Scope given in IEC 60601-1:1988, Clause 1, except as noted above.

Le présent document spécifie des exigences de sécurité et de performance essentielle pour un SYSTEME D'ANESTHESIE ainsi que pour les dispositifs individuels destinés à être utilisés dans un SYSTEME D'ANESTHESIE. Ce document entre dans le champ d'application de la Directive n°93/42/CEE du 14/06/1993 relative aux dispositifs médicaux.

Le présent document définit les exigences relatives aux systèmes de transfert et aux systèmes de réception des systèmes d'évacuation des gaz d'anesthésie actifs (SEGA actifs) conçus pour réduire l'exposition du personnel de santé aux gaz et aux vapeurs d'anesthésie, tout en protégeant le patient.
