7、ittee and supersedes BS 2982:1986 which is withdrawn.BS 2982 was first published in 1958 and was revised in 1974. The first revision introduced provisions for scalpel blades made of stainless steel and for sterile packages of blades.The second revision of BS 2982 introduced amended dimensions for th
8、e fittings whereby blades are attached to handles. Two sizes of fitting were specified, namely the small size (no. 3 fitting) and the large size (no. 4 fitting). The revised dimensions were identical to those given in ISO 7740:1985 prepared by Technical Committee 170, Surgical instruments, of the In
9、ternational Organization for Standardization (ISO), and the objective was to ensure that a satisfactory fit was achieved between any combination of blade and handle manufactured in accordance with the British Standard, ISO 7740:1985 or any foreign national standards having the same dimensional requi
10、rements.This revision of BS 2982 accommodates the implementation of BS EN 27740:1992 Specification for dimensions of surgical scalpels with detachable blades which now specifies only the dimensional requirements. This allows BS 2982 to now restrict its provisions to requirements for the materials us
11、ed for surgical scalpels and requirements for the packaging of blades and handles.Product certification. Users of this British Standard are advised to consider the desirability of third party certification of product conformity with this British Standard based on testing and continued product survei
12、llance which may be coupled with assessment of a suppliers quality systems against BS EN ISO 13485:2003.Enquiries as to the availability of third party certification schemes are forwarded by BSI to the Association of Certification Bodies. If a third party certification scheme does not already exist,
13、 users should consider approaching an appropriate body from the list of Association members.A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application.Compliance with a British Standard does not
14、of itself confer immunity from legal obligations.Summary of pagesThis document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i and ii, pages 1 to 4, an inside back cover and a back cover.This standard has been updated (see copyright date) and may have had amendments incorporated.
