Rescue systems - Transportation of incubators - Part 1: Interface conditions

This European Standard specifies the requirements for the interface between the ambulance and the incubator and the associated equipment, needed for care and treatment of infants, used in emergency or planned transports to ensure interchangeability and interoperability and to provide uninterrupted care of patients.
This European Standard does not give requirements for the vehicles, crafts, devices or incubators as such; these requirements are found in other standards. However, transport incubators are normally combined with other equipment to form a "transport incubator system".

Rettungssysteme - Inkubatortransport - Teil 1: Anforderungen an Schnittstellen

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen an die Schnittstellen zwischen dem Rettungsdienstfahrzeug und dem Inkubator sowie der dazugehörigen Ausrüstung fest, die bei Notfall- oder geplanten Transporten für die Pflege und Behandlung von Säuglingen erforderlich ist, um die Austauschbarkeit und Interfunktionsfähigkeit sicherzustellen und die ununterbrochene Pflege der Patienten zu ermöglichen. In dieser Europäischen Norm sind keine Anforderungen an die Fahrzeuge, Luftfahrzeuge, Geräte oder Inkubatoren selbst festgelegt, diese Anforderungen finden sich in anderen Normen. Transportinkubatoren sind jedoch üblicherweise mit anderen Geräten verbunden und bilden ein „Inkubatortransportsystem“.

Systèmes de sauvetage - Transport d'incubateurs - Partie 1 : Conditions d'interface

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences pour l'interface entre l'ambulance et l'incubateur et les équipements associés, nécessaires pour les soins et le traitement des nourrissons, utilisés dans les transports d'urgence ou prévues pour assurer l'interchangeabilité et l'interopérabilité et fournir des soins sans interruption aux patients.
La présente Norme européenne ne donne pas de prescriptions pour les véhicules, les embarcations, les dispositifs ou les incubateurs en tant que tels, ces exigences se trouvent dans d'autres normes. Toutefois, les incubateurs de transport sont généralement combinés avec d'autres équipements pour former un "système d’incubateur de transport".

Reševalni sistemi - Prevoz inkubatorjev - 1. del: Vmesni pogoji

Ta evropski standard določa zahteve za vmesnik med reševalnim vozilom in inkubatorjem ter pripadajočo opremo, potrebno za nego in zdravljenje dojenčkov, uporabljeno v urgentnih ali načrtovanih prevozih, za zagotavljanje zamenljivosti in interoperabilnosti ter za neprekinjeno nego bolnika. Ta evropski standard ne podaja zahtev za vozila, plovila, naprave ali inkubatorje kot take; te zahteve so v drugih standardih. Vendar so transportni inkubatorji po navadi kombinirani z drugo opremo, da tvorijo »transportni inkubatorski sistem«.
