It supersedes BS EN 13718-2:2008 which is withdrawn.The UK committee recognizes the importance of EN 13718 in setting out minimum standards for the safe and efficient operations of air ambulances within the UK. However, the UK committee has identified concerns that

The same concerns extend to the requirements for specific medical devices, products and equipment on board different types of air amb

33、he secretariat of which is held by DIN. 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of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by September 2015, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by September 2015. Atten

34、tion is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 13718-2:2008. This document has been prepared under a mandate g

35、iven to CEN by the European Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s). For relationship with EU Directive(s), see informative Annex ZA which is an integral part of this document. EN 13718-2:2008 has been technically revised. The follow

36、ing points represent the most important changes in the revision: a) clarified unclear issues in this part of the standard and between the two parts of the standard (for example requirements for patients compartment illumination); b) changed text related to enhancing safety related to the risk from r

37、otors on helicopters; c) clarified the requirements for the patient compartment; d) the standard has been modified/integrated to meet the Medical Devices Directive 93/42/EEC requirements. EN 13718 consists of the following parts, under the general title: Medical vehicles and their equipment Air ambu

38、lance: Part 1: Requirements for medical devices used in air ambulances; Part 2: Operational and technical requirements for air ambulances. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard:

39、 Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,

BS EN 13718-2:2015EN 13718-2:2015 (E) 5 Introduction This part of EN 13718 provides requirements for air ambulances, and in particular covers requirements for the ambulance role of the aircraft. Air ambulances are equipped with medical devices as w

41、ell as drugs and rescue equipment to be used by medical personnel. Requirements for medical devices intended for use in air ambulances are provided in EN 13718-1. This standard is supplementary to several European Standards as well as laws and regulations providing the requirements for aircraft in o

42、rder to provide continuous patient care and monitoring during transport in and between various ambulance types and hospitals. The requirements cover ambulance flights in general. Several national and regional rules and regulations apply to aircraft being used as ambulances. This part of EN 13718 giv

43、es information on these in the annexes and in notes throughout the text. Provisions for the safety and care both of the patient as well as of the crew and the medical personnel are contained in existing national and international laws, regulations and guidelines. This part of EN 13718 provides some

44、general requirements for the safe operation of aircraft being used as ambulances. These requirements are not covered by the scope of the Medical Devices Directive or by international agreements for craft, transportation and traffic. They are provided in order to secure the safe and secure handling o

45、f patients. In order to accommodate continuity of patient care between different kinds of ambulances, some specific requirements are given. Requirements are set in order to secure safe use and handling of medical devices. Aircraft being used as ambulances are equipped with medical devices, medicinal

46、 products and rescue equipment to enable the medical personnel to provide continuous patient care. The minima for the medical devices are specified in Annex A. The requirements set out in this part of EN 13718 give the minimum provisions for an ambulance service to provide satisfactory care and medi

47、cal attention to emergency patients as well as other patients during transportation. The requirements are based on the state of the art of today and common practice in Europe. This European Standard gives minimum requirements for interfaces and compatibility of medical devices used in air ambulances

48、. The standards work was called for by the EU Commission by a mandate linked with the Medical Devices Directive (see Annex ZA and Bibliography 1). This European Standard is supplementary to several other European Standards and gives requirements for medical devices when used in situations where the

49、ambient conditions differ from the normal indoor conditions prevailing within the health care system. Several specific requirements are related to the conditions prevailing in air ambulances. The requirements set are carefully selected to ensure interoperability and continuous patient care. Medical devices need to conform to the applicable essential requirements in the Medical Devices Directive, 93/42/EEC. The essential requirements are listed in Annex I of the Medical Devices Directive. Annex ZA in this European Standard lists the essential requirements that are
