21、This standard is applicable to medical devices generally, but it should be noted that other European Standards may specify additional information requirements for particular types of medical devices. The requirements of this standard are given in clause 4. Additional information and guidance are giv

22、en in the annexes. Annex A gives a short bibliography of documents related to information, including labelling, supplied by the manufacturer. Annexes B and C reproduce, for convenience of use, the relevant text of the EU Directives relating to active implantable medical devices, and to medical devic

23、es, respectively. Guidance is given in annexes B and C to assist manufacturers to achieve compliance with the requirements of those texts. For ease of use, a two column system of presentation has been adopted for annexes B and C. The first column reproduces verbatim the information requirements as g

24、iven in annex 1 of the Council Directives concerning medical devices. The second column contains, where appropriate, further guidance for manufacturers as to ways in which compliance with the particular information requirements of the Directives may be achieved. This guidance is not to be considered

25、 as the obligatory or only way of achieving compliance with the requirements of the Directive; alternative ways may be acceptable. In order to facilitate the presentation of information and to reduce the need for translation into numerous languages, consideration should always be given to using appr

26、opriate symbols. 1 Scope This standard specifies requirements for the information to be supplied by a manufacturer for different categories of medical devices, as required by the relevant EU Directives. It does not specify the language to be used for such information. It is intended to complement th

27、e specific requirements of the EU Directives on medical devices in the context of specifying means by which certain requirements can be met. If these means are followed by a manufacturer, they will provide presumption of conformity with the relevant essential requirements regarding information to be

28、 supplied. 2 Normative references This European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.
