Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and CENELEC shall not be

13、held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. The following dates were fixed: latest date by which the EN has to be implemented at national level by publication of an identical national standard or by endorsement (dop) 2011-02-01 latest date by which the national standards conflict

14、ing with the EN have to be withdrawn (dow) 2013-02-01 This European Standard has been prepared under Mandate M/351 given to CENELEC by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association and covers essential requirements of EC Directive 2004/40/EC. The human exposure to electromagnetic f

15、ields (EMF) is regulated at European level in a twofold way. For the general public, Council Recommendation 1999/519/EC stipulates maximum exposure limits based on the ICNIRP guidelines. Nevertheless, Article 153 of the European treaty grants the member states the right to set stricter limit values

16、in their obligation to govern public health and safety. For occupational exposure directive (2004/40/EC) as individual physical agents directive issued under the occupational health and safety framework directive 89/391/EEC sets the minimum health and safety requirements based on the maximum occupat

17、ional exposure limits of the ICNIRP guidelines. Common to both directives limiting human exposure to EMF and to the ICNIRP guidelines is the fact that their limit values are based on direct effects of EMF exposure to the human body. For the low frequency range the induced current density in the nerv

18、ous system is the limiting factor whereas in the higher frequency area tissue heating by absorption has to be limited. The occupational exposure directive 2004/40/EC in Article 4.5 additionally obliges the employer to investigate during the risk assessment process also indirect effects like interfer

19、ence with medical electronic equipment and devices (including cardiac pacemakers and other implanted devices). Risks to the bearer may be caused by different effects: a conductive implant may directly cause an increase of current density in the body tissue surrounding the implant, or the behaviour o

20、f the device may be interfered with (for examples see D.8). The possibility of interference to the device depends on the EMF exposure level and the electromagnetic performance of the device, its settings and the method of implantation. The clinical relevance of interference may depend on the duratio

21、n of exposure. The main objective of this standard is to describe how a risk assessment for an employee bearing one or more active implantable medical devices (AIMD-Employee) in electromagnetic fields may be performed. A first step consists of a simplified risk analysis, followed where necessary, by

22、 a more extensive risk assessment. BS EN 50527-1:2010 3 EN 50527-1:2010 Directives 90/385/EEC and 2007/47/EC on medical devices requires that AIMDs are designed and manufactured in such a way as to remove or minimize as far as possible risks connected with reasonably foreseeable environmental condit

23、ions such as magnetic fields, external electromagnetic interference effects, and electrostatic discharge. EN 50499 introduces a concept of identifying equipment not likely to cause exposure to EMF above the limit values. This standard follows this approach but some of the identified equipment for ge

24、neral purpose assessment may need further analysis for AIMD-Employee. For higher frequency exposures, human body tissue has a time constant with respect to heating effects and a high immunity to pulsating exposure, whereas the electronic circuitry of an implant may be interfered with even by short p

33、omagnetic fields at a workplace. It specifies how to perform a general risk assessment and to determine whether it is necessary to carry out a detailed risk assessment. NOTE 1 This European Standard does not cover indirect effects caused by non active implants. NOTE 2 The the risk of human exposure

34、to EMF considered is only due to malfunctioning of AIMD. Possibilities of AIMD contribution to the risk: e.g. local modification of the distribution of EMF produced by external source or production of own EMF are covered by the respective product standards for the AIMD. Based on specific workplace s

35、tandards it can be determined whether preventive measures/actions must be taken to comply with the provisions of Directive 2004/40/EC. The work situation covered is considered to be under normal working conditions including normal operation, maintenance, cleaning and other situations being part of t

36、he normal work. The frequencies covered are from 0 Hz to 300 GHz. NOTE 3 The European Parliament and Council Directive 2004/40/EC will be transposed into national legislation in all the EU member countries. It is recommended that users of this standard consult the national legislation related to thi

37、s transposition in order to identify the national regulations and requirements. These national regulations and requirements may have additional requirements that are not covered by this standard and take precedence. NOTE 4 Performance requirements with respect to active implantable medical devices a

38、re excluded from the scope of this standard. These are defined in the relevant particular standards for active implantable medical devices. NOTE 5 This standard is written under mandate M/351 and relates to the exposure limits as specified in the Directive 2004/40/EC which is intended to protect wor

39、kers from risks to their health and safety arising or likely to arise from exposure to electromagnetic fields (0 Hz to 300 GHz) during their work. However, this and other directives may include additional measures for the protection of specific groups of workers and/or specific workplaces for which

40、the employer is required to investigate other protective measures as a part of the overall risk assessment. 2 Relationship to other standards This European Standard complements the workers exposure assessment standard EN 50499. It provides the general methodology for doing the risk assessment for em

41、ployees bearing an AIMD at the workplace. AIMDs are regulated by Directive 90/385/EEC amended by Directive 2007/47/EC. NOTE Product standards EN 45502-1 and of the EN 45502-2-X series describe the product requirements for different kinds of AIMDs. Different kinds of AIMDs are e.g. pacemaker (EN 4550

42、2-2-1), implantable cardioverter defibrillators (EN 45502-2-2), cochlear implants (EN 45502-2-3), implantable neurostimulators (ISO/PRF 14708-3), implantable infusion pumps (ISO/PRF 14708-4) In situations where the risk assessment following this standard does not lead to a conclusion, complementary

43、provisions for the assessment of workers exposure for different kinds of AIMDs are given in particular standards for these specific AIMDs (see Figure 1).
