ETSI ETSI EN 302 510 V2.1.1 (2017-01) 7 Introduction Membrane Implants and associated peripheral equipment are a new technology in the medical field that provides, on a continuing non-invasive basis after the implant is inserted, patient related real time intravenous blood pressure information to the attending physician. This information is used for purposes of diagnosing and treating certain heart related disorders thereby reducing significantly the hospital readmission rate. The present document is a specific product standard applicable to Ultra Low Power Active Medical Membrane Implants and Peripherals operating in the frequency range 30 MHz to 37,5 MHz. The frequency usage conditions for the band 30 MHz to 37,5 MHz are EU wide harmonised for the SRD category "active medical implant devices" according to 2013/752/EU [i.10]. The present document is structured in the following way: • Clauses 1 through 3 provide a general description on the types of equipment covered by the present document and the definitions, symbols and abbreviations used. • Clause 4 provides the technical requirements, specifications, limits and conformance relative to transmitter, receiver, and spectrum access. • Clauses 5.1 and 5.2 specify the conditions for testing of the equipment and interpretation of the measurement results with the maximum measurement uncertainty values. • Clause 5.3 specifies the required measurement methods. In particular clause 5.3.8 describes the monitoring system performance specifications that have been chosen to minimize harmful interference to other equipment or services and minimize the potential for disturbance to this equipment from ambient sources or other medical device users in the band. • Annex A (normative) provides the relationship between the present document and the essential requirements of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1]. • Annex B (normative) provides specifications concerning radiated measurements. • Annex C (normative) provides technical performance of the spectrum analyser. • Annex D (informative) bibliography; provides additional information.

ETSI ETSI EN 302 510 V2.1.1 (2017-01) 8 1 Scope The present document applies to Ultra Low Power-Active Medical Membrane Implants and Membrane Implant Peripherals as described in Directive 90/385/EEC [i.4], covering all active medical implants, that operate in a Medical Implant Communications System in the frequency band 30 MHz to 37,5 MHz. Table 1: Ultra Low Power Active Medical Membrane Implants and Peripherals operating in the frequency band 30 MHz to 37,5 MHz

The present document contains the technical requirements for characteristics of ULP-AMI-M and ULP-AMI-M-P radio equipment which are aligned with annex 12 Sub-band (d) of CEPT/ERC Recommendation 70-03 [i.6]. The frequency usage conditions for the band 30 MHz to 37,5 MHz are EU wide harmonised for the SRD category "active medical implant devices" according to 2013/752/EU [i.10] with the following usage restrictions: • "This set of usage conditions is only available to ultra-low power medical membrane implants for blood pressure measurements within the definition of active implantable medical devices in Directive 90/385/EEC." The present document contains requirements to demonstrate that Ultra Low Power Active Medical Membrane Implants and peripherals used in a medical membrane implant communications system "… shall be so constructed that it both effectively uses and supports the efficient use of radio spectrum in order to avoid harmful interference" (article 3.2 of the Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1]). It does not necessarily include all the characteristics, which may be required by a user, nor does it necessarily represent the optimum performance achievable. 2 References 2.1 Normative references References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or edition number or version number) or non-specific.

Introduction
Membrane Implants and associated peripheral equipment are a new technology in the medical field that provides, on a
continuing non-invasive basis after the implant is inserted, patient related real time intravenous blood pressure
information to the attending physician. This information is used for purposes of diagnosing and treating certain heart
related disorders thereby reducing significantly the hospital readmission rate.
The present document is a specific product standard applicable to Ultra Low Power Active Medical Membrane Implants
and Peripherals operating in the frequency range 30 MHz to 37,5 MHz.
The frequency usage conditions for the band 30 MHz to 37,5 MHz are EU wide harmonised for the SRD category
"active medical implant devices" according to 2013/752/EU [i.10].
The present document is structured in the following way:
• Clauses 1 through 3 provide a general description on the types of equipment covered by the present document
and the definitions, symbols and abbreviations used.
• Clause 4 provides the technical requirements, specifications, limits and conformance relative to transmitter,
receiver, and spectrum access.
• Clauses 5.1 and 5.2 specify the conditions for testing of the equipment and interpretation of the measurement
results with the maximum measurement uncertainty values.
• Clause 5.3 specifies the required measurement methods. In particular clause 5.3.8 describes the monitoring
system performance specifications that have been chosen to minimize harmful interference to other equipment
or services and minimize the potential for disturbance to this equipment from ambient sources or other medical
device users in the band.
• Annex A (normative) provides the relationship between the present document and the essential requirements
of Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1].
• Annex B (normative) provides specifications concerning radiated measurements.
• Annex C (normative) provides technical performance of the spectrum analyser.
• Annex D (informative) bibliography; provides additional information.

1 Scope
The present document applies to Ultra Low Power-Active Medical Membrane Implants and Membrane Implant
Peripherals as described in Directive 90/385/EEC [i.4], covering all active medical implants, that operate in a Medical
Implant Communications System in the frequency band 30 MHz to 37,5 MHz.

Transmitters - Ultra Low Power Active Medical
30 MHz to 37,5 MHz
Membrane Implants and peripherals
Receivers - Ultra Low Power Active Medical
30 MHz to 37,5 MHz
Membrane Implants and peripherals
The present document contains the technical requirements for characteristics of ULP-AMI-M and ULP-AMI-M-P radio
equipment which are aligned with annex 12 Sub-band (d) of CEPT/ERC Recommendation 70-03 [i.6].
The frequency usage conditions for the band 30 MHz to 37,5 MHz are EU wide harmonised for the SRD category
"active medical implant devices" according to 2013/752/EU [i.10] with the following usage restrictions:
• "This set of usage conditions is only available to ultra-low power medical membrane implants for blood
pressure measurements within the definition of active implantable medical devices in Directive 90/385/EEC."
The present document contains requirements to demonstrate that Ultra Low Power Active Medical Membrane Implants
and peripherals used in a medical membrane implant communications system "… shall be so constructed that it both
effectively uses and supports the efficient use of radio spectrum in order to avoid harmful interference" (article 3.2 of
the Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1]). It does not necessarily include all the characteristics, which may be required by a user,
nor does it necessarily represent the optimum performance achievable.

1 Scope
The present document applies to Ultra Low Power-Active Medical Membrane Implants and Membrane Implant

Membrane Implants and peripherals
The present document contains the technical requirements for characteristics of ULP-AMI-M and ULP-AMI-M-P radio
equipment which are aligned with annex 12 Sub-band (d) of CEPT/ERC Recommendation 70-03 [i.6].
The frequency usage conditions for the band 30 MHz to 37,5 MHz are EU wide harmonised for the SRD category
"active medical implant devices" according to 2013/752/EU [i.10] with the following usage restrictions:
• "This set of usage conditions is only available to ultra-low power medical membrane implants for blood
pressure measurements within the definition of active implantable medical devices in Directive 90/385/EEC."
The present document contains requirements to demonstrate that Ultra Low Power Active Medical Membrane Implants
and peripherals used in a medical membrane implant communications system "… shall be so constructed that it both
effectively uses and supports the efficient use of radio spectrum in order to avoid harmful interference" (article 3.2 of
the Directive 2014/53/EU [i.1]). It does not necessarily include all the characteristics, which may be required by a user,
nor does it necessarily represent the optimum performance achievable.
