Matériel respiratoire thérapeutique - Partie 1: Systèmes de nébulisation et leurs composants

Le domaine d'application de l'article 1 de l'EN 60601-1:1990 s'applique, à l'exception du 1.1 qui est remplacé par le texte suivant :
1.1   La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences relatives aux systèmes de nébulisation utilisés pour la délivrance des médicaments aux personnes sous forme d'un aérosol via le système respiratoire.
Elle inclut les nébuliseurs à énergie pneumatique alimentés par compresseurs, par réseau de gaz médicaux, bouteilles, etc., à énergie électrique ( ultrasonique, par exemple) ou les nébuliseurs manuels.
NOTE   Les exigences relatives aux nébuliseurs également utilisés comme humidificateurs sont spécifiées dans l'EN ISO 8185 « Humidificateurs ».
La présente Norme européenne ne traite pas des nébuliseurs préremplis avec un médicament spécifique et non destinés à des applications universelles.
