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 15375 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 76, Transfusion, infusion and injection equipment
for medical and pharmaceutical use.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 15375:2004), Clause 2 of which has been
technically revised.
Introduction
This International Standard deals with permanent suspension devices for multiple use for infusion bottles in
accordance with ISO 8536-1. The intended purpose of suspension devices is to avoid dropdowns of infusion
bottles during administering of blood or pharmaceutical solutions.
