7、eps, snares,electrodes, and other such instruments which can be passedthrough a bronchoscope or with a bronchoscope throughanother accessory. The intent is also to exclude certain instru-ments, such as electrosurgical units, light sources, other suchinstruments, and ventilation systems external to t

(See Fig.

17、1.)3.1.11.2 DiscussionThe definitions given in 3.1.11 and3.1.12, as illustrated, describe characteristics of optical endo-scopes paramount for effective use, thereby allowing the userto select instruments of specific values for particular medicalpurposes.3.1.12 direction of viewthe location of the c

18、enter of theobject field relative to the normal axis of the optical endoscope,and stated as the angle (in degrees) between the normal axis ofthe optical endoscope and the center of the field of view.

19、 optical endoscope whose motion is intended to beremotely controlled by the user.3.1.13.1 Many optical endoscopes incorporate provisionsfor remote control of the motion of the distal tip by the user.The mechanisms for these controls vary widely, and areobviously of interest to the user. In order to

20、avoid constraint offuture designs, control characteristics are defined in the mostgeneral terms.3.1.14 French (Charriere) size (Fr)a measure of the sizeof certain endoscopic accessories of circular and noncircularcross-section. The measure has several definitions:Fr 5 3 3 u/3.1416 pi! for noncircula

21、r cross2sectionwhere u is the perimeter of the cross-section, mm.Fr 5 3.1416pi! 3 d for circular cross2sectionwhere d is the diameter of the cross-section, mm.Fr 5 3.0 3 d for circular cross2section3where d is the diameter of the cross-section, mm.3.1.14.1 DiscussionThis measure of size enjoys world

22、-wide favor in many branches of medicine. In usage, themeasurement is imprecise, as shown in 3.1.14. The user shouldbe provided with the manufacturers definition if the term is tobe of any value. Metric measures appear to be more precise.4. Significance and Use4.1 This specification applies to rigid

23、 bronchoscopes, thoseendoscopic accessories through which rigid bronchoscopes areused, those accessories which are passed through rigid bron-choscopes in use, and those associated accessories which areinserted into the body.5. Required Characteristics5.1 Critical Dimensions:5.1.1 The maximum inserti

24、on portion width shall not ex-ceed that stated by the manufacturer. (See Note 1.)NOTE 1These sizes are given to help the user to select the instrumentsfor a given procedure. Compatibility of instruments in combinationrequires certain clearances between the insertion portion width and thelumen width;

25、 the clearance required depends upon the configuration anddimensions of the instruments. There is no guarantee that the instrumentsselected solely by these criteria will be compatible in combination.5.1.2 The minimum lumen width shall not be less than thatmarked on the bronchoscope. (See Note 1.)5.1

26、.3 The overall length shall not exceed that marked on thebronchoscope.5.1.4 The working length shall not be less than that markedon the bronchoscope.5.2 Ventilation ConnectorsVentilation connectors shallmeet the requirements of Specification F 1054 or shall beprovided with an adaptor to connect with

27、 the 15/22-mmconnector.6. Marking, Labeling, and Packaging6.1 Marking:6.1.1 Instrument Marking (see Note 2)Dimensions shallbe given in metric units. Each individual bronchoscope andendoscopic accessory shall have, as a minimum, the followingmarkings:NOTE 2The identification of the instrument and mar

29、for rigid broncho-scope, and6.1.1.3 Maximum insertion portion width, working length,field of view, and direction of view of the optical endoscope.6.1.2 Marking Legibility (see Note 3)The marking re-quired in 6.1.1 shall remain legible throughout the expected lifeof the instrument when it is used, cl

30、eaned, disinfected, steril-ized, and stored in accordance with the manufacturers instruc-tions.NOTE 3The primary requirement of instrument marking is that it belegible. Any more detailed requirements on marking methods, materials,sizes, and other characteristics could inhibit design and process inno
