Medical gloves for single use - Part 2: Requirements and testing for physical properties

This European Standard specifies requirements and gives test methods for physical properties of single-use medical gloves (i.e. surgical gloves and examination/procedure gloves) in order to ensure that they provide and maintain in use an adequate level of protection from cross contamination for both patient and user.
This European Standard does not specify the size of a lot. Attention is drawn to the difficulties that can be associated with the distribution and control of very large lots. The recommended maximum individual lot size for production is 500 000.

Medizinische Handschuhe zum einmaligen Gebrauch - Teil 2: Anforderungen und Prüfung der physikalischen Eigenschaften

Diese Norm legt Anforderungen und Prüfmethoden der physikalischen Eigenschaften medizinischer Hand-schuhe zum einmaligen Gebrauch (d. h. Operationshandschuhe und Untersuchungs-/Behandlungshandschuhe) fest, um sicherzustellen, dass bei Gebrauch ausreichender Schutz vor Kontamination für Patient und Anwender gewährleistet und aufrechterhalten wird.
Diese Norm legt keine Chargengröße fest. Es wird auf die Schwierigkeiten verwiesen, die mit der Verteilung und Kontrolle sehr großer Chargen verbunden sein können. Die empfohlene maximale Einzelchargengröße für die Herstellung beträgt 500 000.

Gants médicaux non réutilisables - Partie 2 : Exigences et essais pour propriétés physiques

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences et méthodes d'essai relatives aux propriétés physiques des gants médicaux non réutilisables (c'est-à-dire des gants de chirurgie et des gants d'examen et de soins), afin de garantir qu'ils assurent et conservent pendant toute la durée de leur utilisation un niveau de protection suffisant contre toute contamination croisée, à la fois pour le patient et pour l'utilisateur.
La présente Norme ne spécifie pas la taille du lot. L’attention est attirée sur les difficultés pouvant être liées à la distribution et à la vérification de lots de volume très important. La taille maximale recommandée d’un lot de production est de 500 000 unités.
