22、definitions apply. 3.1 in vitro diagnostic medical device any medical device which is a reagent, reagent product, calibrator, control material, kit, instrument, apparatus, equipment or system, whether used alone or in combination, intended by the manufacturer to be used in vitro for the examination
23、of specimens, including blood and tissue donations, derived from the human body, solely or principally for the purpose of providing information concerning a physiological or pathological state, or concerning congenital abnormality, or to determine the safety and compatibility with potential recipien
24、ts, or to monitor therapeutic measures NOTE 1 A specimen receptacle, whether vacuum-type or not, specifically intended by its manufacturer for the primary containment and preservation of specimens derived from the human body for the purpose of in vitro diagnostic examination is considered to be an i
25、n vitro diagnostic medical device. NOTE 2 Products for general laboratory use are not in vitro diagnostic medical devices unless such products, in view of their characteristics, are specifically intended by their manufacturer to be used for in vitro diagnostic examination. 3.2 lay person individual
26、who does not have specific medical education EN 376:2002 3.3 marking inscription, in writing or as a graphical symbol, permanently affixed to a product NOTE Examples for inscriptions are manufacturers or distributors trademark, model or type number, identification of intended functions, supply volta
27、ge, particular warnings. 3 EN 13532:2002 (E) 3.4 permanently affixed removable only with a tool or by appreciable force and able to withstand the effects of temperature, rubbing, common solvents, reagents, and vapours encountered during normal use 3.5 self-testing use in the home or similar environm
28、ents by a lay person who will relate the result of the test to him- or herself EN 376:2002 4 Design criteria 4.1 Ergonomic and human factor aspects The design of IVD MDs for self-testing shall take the following ergonomic and human factors into consideration: - identification of intended users; - ea
29、se of operation; - ease of user maintenance; - readability of the test results; - ease of interpretation of the instructions for use; -ease of verification by the user of the correct functioning of the IVD MD for self-testing; - reasonably foreseeable variations in the way in which the user performs
30、 the test; - reasonably foreseeable variations in the environment in which the test is performed; - reasonably foreseeable misuse. When taking these factors into account, consideration shall be given to potential limitations in skills and capabilities of users for whom the IVD MD for self-testing is
31、 intended. 4.2 Electromagnetic compatibility EN 61 326 shall apply, if relevant. 4.3 Protection against electric shock EN 61 O1 0-1 :2001, clause 6, shall apply, if relevant. 4.4 Protection against mechanical hazards EN 61 O1 0-1 :2001, clause 7, shall apply, if relevant. 4.5 Mechanical resistance t
32、o shock, vibration and impact EN 61 O1 0-1 :2001, clause 8, shall apply, if relevant. 4 EN 13532:2002 (E) 4.6 Equipment temperature exposure limits EN 61 O1 0-1 :2001, clause IO, shall apply. 4.7 Resistance to heat EN 61010-1:2001, clause 10 as well as 12.3 and 12.4, shall apply. Additionally, it sh
33、all be taken into account that heat may be generated by natural sunlight and other visible light sources. 4.8 EN 61010-1:2001, 11.1, 11.2 and 11.3, shall apply. Resistance to moisture and liquids 4.9 EN 61 O1 0-1 :2001, 13.1 and 13.2, shall apply, if relevant. Protection against liberated gases, exp
34、losion and implosion 4.1 O Components EN 61010-1:2001, 14.1, 14.4, 14.5and 14.6, shall apply. 4.1 1 Risk analysis The manufacturer shall decide on the acceptability of potential risk of such factors as: - unforeseen use of the IVD MD for self-testing in a potentially unsuitable environment (e. g. tr
35、avel, hotel); - limitations of skills and means available to lay users; - limitations of specified performance characteristics; - probability of occurrence of failure; - consequence of a failure; - inappropriate disposal. NOTE This subclause refers to EN 1441. This standard does not stipulate levels
36、 of acceptability which, because they are determined by a multiplicity of factors, cannot by their nature be set down in such a standard. This standard is not intended to give detailed guidance on management of risks. Furthermore, it is not intended to cover decision-making processes regarding asses
37、sment of the indications and contra-indications for the use of a particular IVD MD for self-testing. 4.12 Design change Changes to the design of an IVD MD for self-testing which are made after it has been put onto the market and which affect - the specifications; -the performance; -the marking and i
38、nformation supplied by the manufacturer if ignoring such changes could lead to erroneous res u Its; 5 EN 13532:2002 (E) - aspects of safety of the user or a third party shall be regarded as significant. Such changes shall be submitted to risk analysis and evaluation. 5 Markings and information suppl
39、ied by the manufacturer 5.1 Markings and labels of IVD MDs for self-testing Where an IVD MD for self-testing involves the use of an instrument, the marking of the instrument shall be in accordance with EN 1658. In addition, the IVD instruments for self-testing shall bear the following markings, if a
40、ppropriate, e. g. if not noted in the instructions for use of the instrument or on the label or in the instructions for use of the reagents necessary to perform the respective self-testing: - intended purpose; - a statement that the instrument is intended for self-testing; - a reference to the instr
41、uctions for use. Where an IVD MD for self-testing involves the use of a reagent, reagent product, calibrator, control material, kit and/or other consumables, these elements shall be labelled according to EN 376. 5.2 Instructions for use of IVD MDs for self-testing Any instructions for use of instrum
42、ents shall be in accordance with the requirements given in EN 592. Any instructions for use of reagents, reagent products, calibrators, control materials, kits and/or other consumables shall be in accordance with the requirements given in EN 376. 6 Performance evaluation EN 13612 shall apply. 7 User
43、 verification User verification, if reasonably possible, shall allow the user to check at the time of use - correct functioning of the IVD MD for self-testing, i. e. system control, - correct execution of the test including sequence of the procedural steps. NOTE “At the time of use“ means immediatel
44、y before, during, or immediately after the execution of the respective self-test. User verification shall be integrated into the test wherever reasonably possible. User verification should give unambiguous information. The instructions for use shall clearly and in simple terms state what to do if th
45、e verification indicates an invalid result. 6 EN 13532:2002 (E) Annex ZA (informative) Clauses of this European Standard addressing essential requirements or other provisions of EU Directives This European Standard has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the Eur
