This European Standard shall be

17、given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by August 2017, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by August 2017. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document ma

18、y be the subject of patent rights. CEN shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 868-3:2009. Annex A provides details of significant technical changes between this European Standard and the previous edition. EN 868 consists of the follow

19、ing parts, under the general title Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices: Part 2: Sterilization wrap Requirements and test methods; Part 3: Paper for use in the manufacture of paper bags (specified in EN 868-4) and in the manufacture of pouches and reels (specified in EN 868-5) Require

22、e coated nonwoven materials of polyolefines Requirements and test methods. In addition, ISO/TC 198 “Sterilization of health care products” in collaboration with CEN/TC 102 “Sterilizers and associated equipment for processing of medical devices” has prepared the EN ISO 11607 series “Packaging for ter

23、minally sterilized medical devices”. The EN ISO 11607 series specifies general requirements for materials, sterile barrier systems and packaging systems (Part 1) and validation requirements for forming, sealing and assembly processes (Part 2). According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the n

24、ational standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia,

25、Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey and the United Kingdom. BS EN 868-3:2017EN 868-3:2017 (E) 4 Introduction The EN ISO 11607 series consists of two parts under the general title “Packaging for t

26、erminally sterilized medical devices”. Part 1 of this series specifies general requirements and test methods for materials, preformed sterile barrier systems, sterile barrier systems and packaging systems that are intended to maintain sterility of terminally sterilized medical devices to the point o

27、f use. Part 2 of this series specifies validation requirements for forming, sealing and assembly processes. General requirements for all types of sterile barrier systems are provided by EN ISO 11607-1. The EN 868 series can be used to demonstrate compliance with one or more of the requirements speci

28、fied in EN ISO 11607-1. CEN/TC 102/WG 4 also appreciates the initiatives of CEN with regard to the minimization of adverse environmental impacts by standards. It was agreed that this subject should be given priority during the next edition of the EN ISO 11607 series that is the basic reference for a

29、ll parts of the EN 868 series. BS EN 868-3:2017EN 868-3:2017 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies test methods and values for paper, used in the manufacture of paper bags (specified in EN 868-4) and in the manufacture of pouches and reels (specified in EN 868-5) used as sterile barrier sys

30、tems and/or packaging systems that are intended to maintain sterility of terminally sterilized medical devices to the point of use. Other than the general requirements as specified in EN ISO 11607-1 and EN ISO 11607-2 this part of EN 868 specifies materials, test methods and values that are specific

31、 to the products covered by this European Standard. The materials specified in this part of EN 868 are intended for single use only. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

38、his document, the terms and definitions given in EN ISO 11607-1:2009+A1:2014 apply. 4 Requirements 4.1 General For any material, preformed sterile barrier system or sterile barrier system, the requirements of EN ISO 11607-1 shall apply. This part of EN 868 only introduces performance requirements an

39、d test methods that are specific to the products covered by this part of EN 868 but does not add or modify the general requirements specified in EN ISO 11607-1. As such, the particular requirements in 4.2 can be used to demonstrate compliance with one or more but not all of the requirements of EN IS

40、O 11607-1. NOTE 1 Compliance to EN 8683 does not automatically mean compliance to EN ISO 11607-1. A confirmation of compliance to EN 868-3 shall contain a statement whether EN ISO 11607-1 is covered. NOTE 2 When additional materials are used inside the sterile barrier system in order to ease the org

41、anization, drying or aseptic presentation (e.g. inner wrap, container filter, indicators, packing lists, mats, instrument organizer sets, tray liners or an additional envelope around the medical device) then other requirements, including the determination of the acceptability of these materials duri
