Infusion equipment for medical use - Part 4: Infusion sets for single use, gravity feed (ISO 8536-4:2010)

This part of ISO 8536 specifies requirements for single use, gravity feed infusion sets for medical use in order to ensure their compatibility with containers for infusion solutions and intravenous equipment. Secondary aims of this part of ISO 8536 are to provide guidance on specifications relating to the quality and performance of materials used in infusion sets and to present designations for infusion set components. In some countries, the national pharmacopoeia or other national regulations are legally binding and take precedence over this part of ISO 8536.

Infusionsgeräte zur medizinischen Verwendung - Teil 4: Infusionsgeräte für Schwerkraftinfusionen zur einmaligen Verwendung (ISO 8536-4:2010)

Dieser Teil von ISO 8536 legt Anforderungen an zur einmaligen Verwendung bestimmte medizinische Infusionsgeräte für Schwerkraftinfusionen fest, um sicherzustellen, dass sie zur Verwendung mit Behältern für Infusionslösungen und Geräten zur intravenösen Punktion geeignet sind.
Sekundäres Ziel dieses Teils von ISO 8536 ist eine Anleitung zu Festlegungen bezüglich Qualität und Leistungsfähigkeit der Werkstoffe, die für Infusionsgeräte verwendet werden. Außerdem werden Benennun¬gen für die Einzelteile von Infusionsgeräten angegeben.
In einigen Ländern sind das nationale Arzneibuch oder andere nationale Bestimmungen rechtlich bindend und haben Vorrang vor diesem Teil von ISO 8536.

Matériel de perfusion à usage médical - Partie 4: Appareils de perfusion non réutilisables, à alimentation par gravité (ISO 8536-4:2010)

L'ISO 8536-4:2010 spécifie les exigences applicables aux appareils de perfusion à usage médical, non réutilisables, à alimentation par gravité, afin d'assurer leur compatibilité avec les récipients contenant des solutions de perfusion et avec les appareils intraveineux.
Le deuxième objectif de l'ISO 8536-4:2010 est de donner des directives sur les spécifications relatives à la qualité et aux performances des matériaux utilisés dans les appareils de perfusion et de proposer une terminologie concernant les composants de ces derniers.
Dans certains pays, la pharmacopée nationale ou d'autres règlements nationaux ont force d'obligation et ont priorité sur l'ISO 8536-4:2010.

Infuzijska oprema za uporabo v medicini - 4. del: Infuzijski seti za enkratno uporabo, delujoči na osnovi gravitacije (ISO 8536-4:2010)

Ta del standarda ISO 8536 določa zahteve za infuzijske sete za enkratno uporabo, delujoče na osnovi gravitacije, za uporabo v medicini za zagotavljanje združljivosti z vsebniki za infuzijske raztopine in intravenozno opremo. Druga cilja tega dela standarda ISO 8536 sta zagotoviti navodila za specifikacije v zvezi s kakovostjo in učinkovitostjo materialov, uporabljenih za infuzijske sete, ter predstaviti oznake za sestavne dele transfuzijskih setov. V nekaterih državah je nacionalna farmakopeja ali druga nacionalna zakonodaja pravno zavezujoča in ima prednost pred tem delom standarda ISO 8536.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 8536-4 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 76, Transfusion, infusion and injection equipment
for medical and pharmaceutical use.
This fifth edition cancels and replaces the fourth edition (ISO 8536-4:2007), of which it constitutes a minor
revision. In detail, 7.1 was more clarified in alignment with B.2, and A.2.2 was changed in order to go back
with the leakage test pressure to 20 kPa and to restrict the leakage test for (40 ± 1) °C.
ISO 8536 consists of the following parts, under the general title Infusion equipment for medical use:
⎯ Part 1: Infusion glass bottles
⎯ Part 2: Closures for infusion bottles
⎯ Part 3: Aluminium caps for infusion bottles
⎯ Part 4: Infusion sets for single use, gravity feed
⎯ Part 5: Burette infusion sets for single use, gravity feed
⎯ Part 6: Freeze drying closures for infusion bottles
⎯ Part 7: Caps made of aluminium-plastics combinations for infusion bottles
⎯ Part 8: Infusion equipment for use with pressure infusion apparatus
⎯ Part 9: Fluid lines for use with pressure infusion equipment
⎯ Part 10: Accessories for fluid lines for use with pressure infusion equipment
⎯ Part 11: Infusion filters for use with pressure infusion equipment
