31、9 5 EN 60601-2-27:2006 INTRODUCTION This Particular Standard concerns the safety of electrocardiographic monitoring equipment including essential performance. It amends and supplements IEC 60601-1 (second edition 1988): Medical electrical equipment Part 1: General requirements for safety) and its Am
32、endment 1 (1991) and Amendment 2 (1995), hereinafter referred to as the General Standard. The requirements of this Particular Standard take priority over those of the General Standard. A “General guidance and rationale” for the requirements of this Particular Standard is included in Annex AA. It is
33、considered that knowledge of the reasons for these requirements will not only facilitate the proper application of the standard but will, in due course, expedite any revision necessitated by changes in clinical practice or as a result of developments in technology. However, Annex AA does not form pa
34、rt of the requirements of this Standard. An asterisk (*) by a clause or subclause number indicates that some explanatory notes are given in Annex AA. At the time of publication of this Particular Standard work was in progress to create a joint ISO/IEC collateral standard addressing “General requirem
35、ents and guidelines for the application of alarms in medical electrical equipment”. It is intended to harmonize this standard with the above-mentioned collateral standard following its publication. EN 60601-2-27:2006 6 MEDICAL ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT Part 2-27: Particular requirements for the safety, i
36、ncluding essential performance, of electrocardiographic monitoring equipment SECTION ONE GENERAL The clauses and subclauses of this section of the General Standard apply except as follows: 1 Scope and object This clause of the General Standard applies except as follows: *1.1 Scope Addition: This Par
37、ticular Standard specifies the particular safety requirements, including essential performance, for ELECTROCARDIOGRAPHIC (ECG) MONITORING EQUIPMENT as defined in 2.101 and hereinafter also referred to as EQUIPMENT. This standard is applicable to EQUIPMENT used in a hospital environment. If the EQUIP
38、MENT is used outside the hospital environment, such as in ambulances and air transport, the EQUIPMENT shall comply with this standard. NOTE Additional standards apply to the EQUIPMENT covering specifically use outside the hospital environment. This standard is not applicable to electrocardiographic
39、monitors for home use. However, manufacturers should consider using relevant clauses of this standard as appropriate for their intended use. ECG telemetry systems, ambulatory (“Holter“) monitors and other ECG recording devices are outside the scope of this Particular Standard. 1.2 Object Replacement
40、: The object of this Particular Standard is to specify particular requirements for the safety, including essential performance, of EQUIPMENT as defined in 2.101. 1.3 Particular standards Addition: This Particular Standard refers to IEC 60601-1:1988, Medical electrical equipment Part 1: General requi
41、rements for safety as amended by its Amendment 1 (1991) and Amendment 2 (1995). The General Standard takes into account IEC 60601-1-1:2000, Medical electrical equipment Part 1-1: General requirements for safety Collateral standard: Safety requirements for medical electrical systems, IEC 60601-1-2:20
42、01, Medical electrical 7 EN 60601-2-27:2006 equipment Part 1-2: General requirements for safety Collateral standard: Electromagnetic compatibility Requirements and tests and IEC 60601-1-4:1996, Medical electrical equipment Part 1: General requirements for safety 4. Collateral standard: Programmable
43、electric medical systems and its Amendment 1 (1999). For brevity, Part 1 is referred to in this Particular Standard either as the “General Standard” or as the “General Requirement(s)”, and IEC 60601-1-1, IEC 60601-1-2 and IEC 60601-1-4 as the “Collateral Standards”. The numbering of sections, clause
44、s and subclauses of this Particular Standard corresponds with that of the General Standard. The changes to the text of the General Standard are specified by the use of the following words: “Replacement” means that the clause or subclause of the General Standard is replaced completely by the text of
45、this Particular Standard. “Addition” means that the text of this Particular Standard is additional to the requirements of the General Standard. “Amendment” means that the clause or subclause of the General Standard is amended as indicated by the text of this Particular Standard. Subclauses, tables o
46、r figures which are additional to those of the General Standard are numbered starting from 101, additional annexes are lettered AA, BB, etc., and additional items aa), bb), etc. The term “this Standard” is used to make reference to the General Standard and this Particular Standard taken together. Wh
47、ere there is no corresponding section, clause or subclause in this Particular Standard, the section, clause or subclause of the General Standard, although possibly not relevant, applies without modification; where it is intended that any part of the General Standard, although possibly relevant, is n
48、ot to be applied, a statement to that effect is given in this Particular Standard. The requirements of this Particular Standard take priority over those of the General Standard and Collateral Standard mentioned above. 2 Terminology and definitions This clause of the General Standard applies, except
