Terminology3.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.1.1 barrier requirements, nthe need to promote orinhibit moisture, gas, or light, or a combination thereof, whilemaintaining necessary levels of sterility.3.1.2 durability requirements, nmaterial properties rel-evant to the ab
38、ility of the package to protect the product.3.1.3 integrity and seal requirements, nthe ability of thepackage to prevent inadvertent escape of contents or entranceof outside substances while preserving intended opening foruse features.3.1.4 package performance, nthe ability of the packagingsystem, i
39、ncluding the sterile barrier system and protectivepackaging, to withstand the hazards of handling, distribution,and storage.3.1.5 printing requirements, nthe printed ink propertiesneeded to ensure physical and chemical resistance to degrada-tion.3.1.6 processing requirements, nthe material character
40、is-tics needed to ensure the consistent and reliable production ofthe package.3.1.7 safety requirements, nsafeguard product againstcontamination and deleterious health effects.3.1.8 visibility and appearance requirements, nthe desiredpackage aesthetics needed to permit or inhibit viewing of theprodu
41、ct or to enhance product presentation.3.2 For other terms used in this guide, see Terminology F17.4. Significance and Use4.1 This design and evaluation guide describes multiplecategories for evaluating flexible medical packages and pack-aging materials. These include safety, barrier properties,durab
42、ility, package and seal integrity, visibility andappearance, processing, printing ink properties, and packageperformance.4.2 The intent of this design and evaluation guide is toevaluate all cited categories and select those that are appli-cable. Once the product has been characterized and thesterili
43、zation methodology has been defined, there are numeroussets of requirements for any specific package. This design andevaluation guide provides an avenue for assessing theserequirements and choosing test methods for both evaluating thepackage design and monitoring package compliance.NOTE 1Many of the
