5、rresponding to the International Standard referred to in this document is as follows: ISO 8601 DIN ISO 8601 Amendments This standard differs from DIN EN 868-5:2002-01 as follows: a) Changes in order to align this European Standard with the DIN EN ISO 11607 series, in particular by: amending the main

6、 element of the title, the scope and the terminology; using DIN EN ISO 11607-1 as normative reference regarding the general requirements for materials, sterile barrier systems and packaging systems; deleting requirements that are covered by DIN EN ISO 11607 (such as requirements on leaching of toxic

7、 substances). b) In addition to a) first dash, the scope has been modified to: explain that other requirements might be of relevance for additional materials being used inside a sterile barrier system; clarify that the materials covered by this European Standard are intended for single use only; eli

8、minate the restriction to heat and self-sealability; to include also porous materials according to DIN EN 868-2, DIN EN 868-6, DIN EN 868-7, DIN EN 868-9 and DIN EN 868-10. c) A definition of health care facility has been added. d) An explanatory note has been inserted to refer the user of this Euro

9、pean Standard to the general requirements on conditions during production and handling with respect to their impact on the product in DIN EN ISO 11607. e) Requirements on indicators have been amended on the basis of DIN EN ISO 11140-1. f) Requirements on the construction and design have been amended

10、 in particular with regard to the closure of the pouch and/or reel and the protrusion of one web. g) Requirements on the seal, the seal strength and test method have been amended. h) The test method for resistance to the sterilization process has been amended by eliminating the restriction to moist

11、heat and ethylene oxide sterilization processes. i) Requirements on marking have been amended. j) Requirements on information to be provided by the manufacturer have been amended. k) The test reports in the annexes have been amended. l) The informative annex on dimensions and tolerances has been del

In addition, ISO/TC 198 “Sterilization of health care products“ in collaboration with CEN/TC 102 “Sterilizers for medical purposes“ has prepared the EN ISO 11607 series “Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices“. The EN ISO 11607 series specifies general requirements for materials, s

32、868-5:2009-09 EN 868-5:2009 (E) 4 Introduction The EN ISO 11607 series consists of two parts under the general title “Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices“. Part 1 of this series specifies general requirements and test methods for materials, preformed sterile barrier systems, sterile

33、barrier systems and packaging systems that are intended to maintain sterility of terminally sterilized medical devices to the point of use. Part 2 of this series specifies validation requirements for forming, sealing and assembly processes. Every sterile barrier system shall fulfil the requirements

34、of EN ISO 11607-1. The EN 868 series can be used to demonstrate compliance with one or more of the requirements specified in EN ISO 11607-1. During the revision of EN 868 parts 2 to 10 CEN/TC 102/WG 4 recognized Resolution CEN/BT 21/2003 relating to the implementation of the uncertainty of measureme

35、nt concept in standards. Following this Resolution and the corresponding guidance, CEN/TC 102/WG 4 has initiated a review of the test methods needed to show compliance with the requirements specified in EN 868 parts 2 to 10 with the intention that the information required by CEN/BT 21/2003 be availa

36、ble for inclusion in EN 868 parts 2 to 10 during one of their next revisions. 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

37、 EN ISO 11607 series that is the basic reference for all parts of the series EN 868. DIN EN 868-5:2009-09 EN 868-5:2009 (E) 5 1 Scope This part of EN 868 provides test methods and values for sealable pouches and reels manufactured from porous materials complying with either EN 868 part 2, 3, 6, 7, 9

38、 or 10 and plastic film complying with Clause 4 used as sterile barrier systems and/or packaging systems that are intended to maintain sterility of terminally sterilized medical devices to the point of use. NOTE 1 The need for a protective packaging may be determined by the manufacturer and the user

39、. This part of EN 868 only introduces performance requirements and 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 to 4.5 can be used to demonstr

40、ate compliance with one or more but not all of the requirements of EN ISO 11607-1. The materials specified in this part of EN 868 are intended for single use only. NOTE 2 When additional materials are used inside the sterile barrier system in order to ease the organization, drying or aseptic present

41、ation (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 during validation activities, may apply.
