72 performance of invasive blood pressure monitoring equipment
75 FOREWORD
76 1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
77 all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
78 international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
79 this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
80 Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
81 Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
82 in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non -
83 governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
84 with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
85 agreement between the two organizations.
86 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
87 consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
88 interested IEC National Committees.
89 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
90 Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
91 Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
92 misinterpretation by any end user.
93 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
94 transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any diverg ence
95 between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
96 the latter.
97 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
98 assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
99 services carried out by independent certification bodies.
100 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
101 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
102 members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
103 other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
104 expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
105 Publications.
106 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
107 indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
108 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
109 patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
110 International standard IEC 60601-2-34 has been prepared by a Joint Working Group of IEC
111 subcommittee 62D: Electromedical equipment, of IEC technical committee 62: Electrical
112 equipment in medical practice and ISO subcommittee SC3: Lung ventilators and related
113 equipment, of ISO technical committee 121: Anaesthetic and respiratory equipment.
114 This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition of IEC 60601-2-34 published in 2011
115 and constitutes a technical revision. This edition was revised to align with Amendment 1:2012
116 and Amendment 2:2020 of IEC 60601-1:2005 as well as new versions of collateral standards
117 and amendments thereto.
118 Further it includes the following technical changes:
119 – Expansion of the scope to the EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICE ENVIRONMENT
120 – Changed ESSENTIAL PERFORMANCE in Table 201.101
121 – Changed requirement for ingress protection
