DIN EN 14683:2014-07EN 14683:2014 (E) 4 Introduction The tr

26、ansmission of infective agents during surgical procedures in operating theatres and other medical settings can occur in several ways. Sources are, for example, the noses and mouths of members of the surgical team. The main intended use of medical face masks is to protect the patient from infective a

27、gents and, additionally, in certain circumstances to protect the wearer against splashes of potentially contaminated liquids and viable particles. Medical face masks may also be intended to be worn by patients and other persons to reduce the risk of spread of infections, particularly in epidemic or

28、pandemic situations. DIN EN 14683:2014-07EN 14683:2014 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies construction, design, performance requirements and test methods for medical face masks intended to limit the transmission of infective agents from staff to patients during surgical procedures and ot

29、her medical settings with similar requirements. A medical face mask with an appropriate microbial barrier can also be effective in reducing the emission of infective agents from the nose and mouth of an asymptomatic carrier or a patient with clinical symptoms. This European Standard is not applicabl

30、e to masks intended exclusively for the personal protection of staff. NOTE 1 Standards for masks for use as respiratory personal protective equipment are available. NOTE 2 Annex A provides information for the users of medical face masks. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in

31、 part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN ISO 10993-1, Biological evaluation of medic

35、e agents between staff and patient Note 1 to entry: Transmission of blood-borne agents from patients to staff may occur via splashes. 3.2 bacterial filtration efficiency (BFE) efficiency of the medical face mask material(s) as a barrier to bacterial penetration Note 1 to entry: The BFE test method i

36、s used to measure the bacterial filtration efficiency (BFE) of medical face mask materials. 3.3 differential pressure air permeability of the mask, measured by determining the difference of pressure across the mask under specific conditions of air flow, temperature and humidity DIN EN 14683:2014-07E

37、N 14683:2014 (E) 6 Note 1 to entry: The differential pressure is an indicator of the “breathability“ of the mask. 3.4 colony forming unit (cfu) unit by which the culturable number of micro-organisms is expressed Note 1 to entry: The culturable number is the number of micro-organisms, single cells or

38、 aggregates, able to form colonies on a solid nutrient medium. 3.5 cleanliness freedom from unwanted foreign matter Note 1 to entry: Such matter can be micro-organisms, organic residues or particulate matter. 3.5.1 cleanliness microbial freedom from population of viable micro-organisms on a product

39、and/or a package Note 1 to entry: In practical use, microbial cleanliness is often referred to as “bioburden“. 3.5.2 cleanliness particulate matter freedom from particles that are contaminating a material and can be released but are not generated by mechanical impact 3.6 infective agent micro-organi

40、sm that has been shown to cause surgical wound infections or that might cause infection in the patient, members of staff or other 3.7 surgical procedure surgical intervention penetrating skin or mucosa, performed by a surgical team under controlled environmental conditions 3.8 aerosol gaseous suspen

41、sion of solid and/or liquid particles, the particles having a negligible falling velocity Note 1 to entry: See EN 132. Note 2 to entry: This velocity is generally considered to be less than 0,25 m/s. 3.9 filter material used for mechanical and physical separation or deposition of aerosol particles (

42、liquid or solid) from the inhaled and exhaled air 3.10 splash resistance ability of a medical face mask to withstand penetration of synthetic blood projected at a given pressure 4 Classification Medical face masks specified in this European Standard are classified into two types (Type I and Type II)

43、 according to bacterial filtration efficiency whereby Type II is further divided according to whether or not the mask is splash resistant. DIN EN 14683:2014-07EN 14683:2014 (E) 7 5 Requirements 5.1 General 5.1.1 Materials and construction The medical face mask is a medical device, generally composed

44、 of a filter layer that is placed, bonded or moulded between layers of fabric. The medical face mask shall not disintegrate, split or tear during intended use. In the selection of the filter and layer materials, attention shall be paid to cleanliness (absence of particulate matter). 5.1.2 Design The

45、 medical face mask shall have a means by which it can be fitted closely over the nose, mouth and chin of the wearer and which ensures that the mask fits closely at the sides. Medical face masks may have different shapes and constructions as well as additional features such as a face shield (to prote

46、ct the wearer against splashes and droplets) with or without anti-fog function, or a nose bridge (to enhance fit by conforming to the nose contours). 5.2 Performance requirements 5.2.1 General All tests shall be carried out on finished products or samples cut from finished products, if applicable in

47、 their sterile state. 5.2.2 Bacterial filtration efficiency (BFE) When tested in accordance with Annex B, the bacterial filtration efficiency (BFE) of the medical face mask shall conform to the minimum value given for the relevant type in Table 1. 5.2.3 Breathability When tested in accordance with A

48、nnex C, the differential pressure of the medical face mask shall conform to the value given for the relevant type in Table 1. 5.2.4 Splash resistance When tested in accordance with ISO 22609 the resistance of the medical face mask to penetration of splashes of liquid shall conform to the minimum val

49、ue given for Type IIR in Table 1. 5.2.5 Microbial cleanliness (Bioburden) When tested according to EN ISO 11737-1 the bioburden of the medical mask shall be 30 cfu/g tested (see Table 1). NOTE EN ISO 11737-1 specifies requirements and provides guidance for the enumeration and microbial characterisation of the population of viable microorganisms on or in a medical device, component, raw material or package. To determine the masks bioburden according to EN ISO 11737-1,
