17、S 3271 published in 1960 was prepared following a request made by the Ministry of Health and was authorized by the Surgical Instruments and Medical Appliances Industry Standards Committee of the British Standards Institution. This revised edition of BS 3271 brings up to date present requirements for

18、 surgical elastic band trusses with respect to materials and methods of fabrication, together with such dimensions of components as are independent of individual clinical requirements. Provision is made for the use of adhesives in the construction of the pad. Changes have been made to requirements f

19、or elastic webbing and certain details of fabrication. In accordance with prescribed national policy the opportunity has been taken for requirements to be specified in metric units although equivalents in the customary imperial units have been included for convenience during the pending change to ge

20、neral use of the metric system in the United Kingdom. Likewise, provision has been made for use of screws having ISO metric threads which it is intended will ultimately take the place of the BA system of screw threads. Surgical spring trusses are dealt with in BS 2930. NOTEMetric units are to be reg

21、arded as the standard. Where equivalents are given in other units they are approximate. More accurate conversions should be based on the tables in BS 350 “Conversion factors and tables”, or in BS 2856 “Precise conversion of inch and metric sizes on engineering drawings”. Imperial units have been ret

22、ained, however, for certain textile requirements for which it would be currently impracticable to use metric units.BS3271:1970 BSI 02-2000 iii A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct appli

23、cation. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pages i to iv, pages1to10, an inside back cover and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright date) a

24、nd may have had amendments incorporated.
