This European Standard

12、replaces EN 1615:1997. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by April 2001, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by April 2001. According to the CENEENELEC In

13、ternal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerla

14、nd and the United Kingdom. Page 3 EN 1615 : 2000 Introduction This European Standard specifies requirements for single-use enteral feeding catheters and enteral giving sets and their connector systems. The requirements for enteral feeding catheters, giving sets and their connections are specified so

15、 that, when used in current clinical practice, these devices do not compromise the clinical condition or the safety of patients. Some general requirements are covered by reference to other European standards listed in the normative references clause. This European Standard contains informative refer

16、ences to other European Standards listed in the Bibliography. Enteral feeding catheters are intended for human enteral nutrition. They are designed to pass the nutrition solutions through the nose or mouth, or by gastrostomy, jejunostomy or oesophagostomy . Both enteral giving sets and enteral feedi

17、ng catheters are often used with enteral nutrition pumps. The performance and connecting system requirements are specified so that both devices and their connections perform safely. It is important that enteral giving sets should not be able to be connected to parenteral intravascular catheters or a

18、ny other catheter with a female Luer connector. The requirements for the connecting systems prevent this form of misconnection. There are many enteral giving sets and enteral feeding catheters on the market which perform satisfactorily. This standard specifies three connectors suitable for enteral g

19、iving sets. It has not been found possible or desirable to limit the standard to only one connector. This places the onus on the designers and manufacturers of the enteral feeding catheters to provide connectors on their devices which mate with the connector on the enteral giving set and conform to

20、the appropriate clauses of this standard. The report from the Task Force Group “Luer Fittings” under the auspices of the CEN Health Care Forum has been noted. A revision of the present standard will be undertaken when an appropriate solution has been decided for alternative connector systems for ent

21、eral use. It was not considered necessary to provide a colour code on the enteral giving set, because the connectors specified for the enteral giving set will not fit into a female Luer fitting. Also, many enteral feeding catheters use a colour code on the connector to indicate the diameter of the c

22、atheter, and this could cause confusion with any colour suggested for coding the enteral giving set. Page 4 EN 161 5 : 2000 1 Scope This European Standard specifies requirements for the design and testing of single-use enteral feeding catheters, single-use enteral giving sets and their connection sy

23、stems. Requirements for radiodetectable enteral feeding catheters are not given in this standard. NOTE Enteral feeding catheters intended for insertion through the mouth or nose can be radiodetectable in their entirety or at the tip or by means of intermittent marks. At present there is no generally

24、 accepted standard test method for radiodetectability, but research to develop a standard method of test is being considered. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this International Standard.

Page 5 EN 1615 : 2000 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this European Standard the following terms and definitions apply. 3.1 enteral giving set medical device by which nutrient or diet is transferred from a nutrient or diet container to an enter

30、al feeding catheter (see Figure 1) 3.2 enteral feeding catheter medical device consisting of a flexible tube having one or more eyes and a connector, designed to introduce nutrient or diet into the gastro-intestinal tract 4 Requirements 4.1 Enteral giving set The enteral giving set shall consist of

31、at least the following: a) either an integral nutrient container or a means of effecting connection to a nutrient container; b) flexible tubing; c) a connector to make a connection with an enteral feeding catheter. NOTE 1 The enteral giving set can also be provided with other features, e.g. a drip c

32、hamber, a pump insert, a means for regulating and/or stopping the flow through the enteral giving set. NOTE 2 The means of connection between the enteral giving set and the nutrient container (if it is not integral) is preferably a screw fitting or a means different from the piercing pin system used

33、 for parenteral administration. 4.1 -1 Tensile properties The flexible tubing pari of the enteral giving set shall withstand a linear tensile force of 15 N without rupture or cracking when tested in accordance with EN 161 8:1997, annex B.
