21、gen therapy and for the treatment of decompression illness. These chambers are made to allow the safe administration of hyperoxic gas mixtures at pressure while avoiding the risks of fire within the chamber and of uncontrolled compression or decompression. They need to allow all levels of patient ca

22、re up to intensive care with all the necessary equipment and provide a safe working environment for patient carers. Standards on ergonomics for the design of pressure chambers for therapeutic use are not available. Nevertheless guidance for the application of ergonomics standards is given in the bib

23、liography. Chambers providing exclusively for hyperbaric oxygen therapy operate typically with a maximum operational pressure of 200 kPa (2 bar) above atmospheric pressure. Pressure chambers providing treatment for decompression illness have a maximum operating pressure of 500 kPa (5 bar) or more. T

24、reatment times in the chamber are typically 2 h to 3 h for hyperbaric oxygen treatments while standard treatment for decompression illness may last 8,5 h or more. Atmospheric conditions within the chamber need to be comfortable and, in particular, oxygen levels require control in order to avoid hypo

25、xia, oxygen toxicity and undue risk of fire.

Pressurised components within such systems shall

39、be in accordance with the Directive 97/23/EC on pressure equipment. Hyperbaric pressure chamber systems shall, when installed, commissioned, operated in normal use and maintained according to the instructions of the manufacturer, cause no safety hazard which could be foreseen using risk analysis pro

40、cedures in accordance with EN ISO 14971 in regard to their intended application, in normal condition and in single fault condition. Hyperbaric chamber systems and components or parts thereof, using materials or having forms of construction different from those detailed in this European Standard, sha
