18、rotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields.
19、To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC Nat
20、ional Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization
21、(ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representatio
22、n from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot
23、be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications.
24、Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, access
25、 to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including indivi
26、dual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, t
27、his IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of t
28、his IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. The main task of IEC technical committees is to prepare International Standards. However, a technical committee may propose the publication of a technical report
29、when it has collected data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an International Standard, for example “state of the art“. IEC 61289, which is a technical report, has been prepared by sub-committee 62D: Electromedical equipment, of IEC technical committee 62: Electrical equip
30、ment in medical practice. This first edition of IEC 61289 cancels and replaces IEC 61289-1:1994 and IEC 61289- 2:1994, of which it constitutes a technical revision and combination. The text of this technical report is based on the following documents: Enquiry draft Report on voting 62D/929DTR 62D/95
31、6/RVC TR 61289 IEC:2011(E) 5 Full information on the voting for the approval of this technical report can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. Certain terms are used with a defined meaning
32、and these are given in the text in SMALL CAPITALS. The definitions of these terms are provided in Clause 2. The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related t
33、o the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be reconfirmed, withdrawn, replaced by a revised edition, or amended. A bilingual version of this publication may be issued at a later date. 6 TR 61289 IEC:2011(E) INTRODUCTION This report gives guidelines to personnel in charge of opera
34、tion of equipment covered by IEC 60601-2-2 to enable them to attain the best conditions of safety for their patients and themselves. TR 61289 IEC:2011(E) 7 HIGH FREQUENCY SURGICAL EQUIPMENT OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE 1 Scope This technical report contains guidelines for medical and nursing personnel
35、regarding the safe and effective operation of HIGH FREQUENCY SURGICAL EQUIPMENT (also referred to as HF SURGICAL EQUIPMENT in this document). It will also be of use to scientific/technical staff who have responsibility for the maintenance of this equipment. The application guidelines in this documen
36、t deal with the safe operation of HIGH FREQUENCY SURGICAL EQUIPMENT constructed according to the safety requirements of IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-2-2 (see Bibliography). Not all existing HIGH FREQUENCY SURGICAL EQUIPMENT meets the minimum requirements of current international standards, however, the
37、 guidelines in this report will still be helpful in utilizing these devices. This report assumes that the electrical installation of HIGH FREQUENCY SURGICAL EQUIPMENT meets national and local regulations for medically used rooms. 2 Terms and definitions For the purpose of this document, the followin
