28、tion) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
29、represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standard
30、s are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an Interna
31、tional Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 23908 was
32、 prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 84, Devices for administration of medicinal products and intravascular catheters. BS EN ISO 23908:2013ISO 23908:2011(E) ISO 2011 All rights reserved vIntroduction This International Standard addresses sharps injury protection systems designed to protect users
33、of medical devices. These sharps injury protection features are intended to prevent, or reduce the potential for, disease transmission which could result from accidental, post-use sharps injuries. This International Standard is aimed at addressing devices primarily intended for human use, of a wide
34、range of product types, including, among others, hollow-bore needles for injection or infusion of therapeutics into the body, or sampling of fluids from the body, and hollow bore or solid-core needles used for blood sampling (e.g. lancing devices). It addresses sharps injury protection systems which
35、 are either active or passive in their activation after the medical devices intended use. It does not cover solid-core needles used for surgery (e.g. suture needles). Given the broad variation in product design and sharps protection technology, the variety of different types of devices, and in order
36、 to avoid unnecessarily restricting innovation, this International Standard has been developed as “horizontal” in nature, which means it provides for general design, testing and labelling requirements, rather than specific physical and prescriptive design requirements. It therefore differs from more
37、 “vertical” standards, which list specific maximum forces, detailed test fixture designs, test systems to be used or detailed test measures, as such prescriptive details cannot cover the variety of designs and devices, and may impede continuing innovation in new products, features and/or protection
38、mechanisms that lead to future improvements in healthcare. This International Standard presumes that the product developer would use a risk-based approach (consistent with ISO 14971) to determine the device design that best meets the needs of a target user population and expected use settings. Throu
39、gh this risk-based approach, the sharps injury protection system would have performance requirements appropriate to the foreseeable risks associated with the intended use of the device, expected user interfaces, and the settings in which these safety features are expected to be used. This Internatio
40、nal Standard provides guidelines to enable the manufacturer to verify that the design of the sharps injury protection systems complies with the design intent spelled out in the design specification. As part of this verification, the manufacturer is expected to demonstrate that the performance of the
41、 sharps injury protection system is appropriate to the intended users and settings through the use of appropriate simulated or clinical use studies. These simulated or clinical use studies allow the manufacturer to demonstrate that, when used in accordance with the instructions for use, in settings
42、representative of real-life intended use and by intended or foreseeable users, the device functions as intended. Existing products and those currently under development may not fulfil some of the requirements given by this International Standard. However, manufacturers would be well advised to follo
43、w its provisions when improving existing products or developing new products to obtain an even higher level of quality.

44、ion features for single-use hypodermic needles, introducers for catheters and needles used for blood sampling 1 Scope This International Standard gives requirements and test methods for evaluating the performance parameters of sharps injury protection features, whether active or passive in design, f
45、or medical devices containing (sharp) hypodermic needles for single use, introducers for catheters and lancets, and other needles used in blood sampling. The sharps injury protection devices it covers may be provided integral to the device or combined with the device prior to use to achieve the shar

It does not give requirements for the storage and handling of the sharps protection before its intended use, or for the medical device itself. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.
