Overview

ISO 18082:2014/Amd 1:2017 is an important amendment to the international standard governing anaesthetic and respiratory equipment, specifically focusing on the dimensions of non-interchangeable screw-threaded (NIST) low-pressure connectors for medical gases. Published by ISO, this amendment updates the 2014 edition of ISO 18082 to ensure enhanced clarity, precision, and safety in the manufacturing and use of medical gas connectors.

The amendment is essential for maintaining standardization in medical gas systems, supporting compatibility, preventing misconnections, and improving patient safety across healthcare facilities worldwide.

Key Topics

  • Standardization of NIST connectors: This amendment refines dimensional requirements for low-pressure connectors in anaesthetic and respiratory equipment to prevent accidental interchange between different medical gases.
  • Terminology Update: The amendment replaces the term "air enriched in oxygen" with the more precise term "oxygen 93 (O2 93)," reflecting updated medical gas classifications.
  • Dimensional Clarifications: Adjustments to dimensions and tolerances have been clarified, including the removal of superfluous marks and redefinition of applicable tolerance scopes across connector types B11 to C24.
  • Table Updates: Multiple tables throughout the standard have been amended to reflect these terminological and dimensional updates, ensuring consistency and accuracy.
  • Bibliographical Updates: References to related standards, including the AS 2896:2011 for medical gas pipeline systems, have been updated for relevance and accuracy.

Applications

ISO 18082:2014/Amd 1:2017 applies primarily in the design, manufacturing, testing, installation, and maintenance of medical gas supply systems in healthcare environments. Key application areas include:

  • Anaesthetic Equipment Manufacturing: Ensures connectors for oxygen, nitrous oxide, air, and other medical gases comply with precise dimensional standards, minimizing risks of cross-connection.
  • Respiratory Therapy Devices: Supports compliance in low-pressure connectors for ventilators, oxygen masks, and other respiratory aids.
  • Hospital Gas Pipeline Systems: Influences the design of connectors on medical gas supply outlets and pipelines to maintain compatibility and safety.
  • Quality Control and Compliance Testing: Provides technical specifications used by regulatory bodies and manufacturers to verify compliance with safety and interoperability requirements.
  • Medical Equipment Standardization: Facilitates consistent and interoperable components across international markets, boosting global trade and safety standards adherence.

Related Standards

  • ISO 7396-1: Medical gas pipeline systems - Part 1: Pipeline systems for compressed medical gases and vacuum, closely related as it defines oxygen supply directives influencing connector standards.
  • AS 2896:2011: Medical gas pipeline systems - Part 1: Pipeline systems for compressed medical gases and vacuum, referenced for pipeline systems compliance.
  • ISO 5359: Connectors for anaesthetic and respiratory equipment, generally related but with specific provisions distinct from ISO 18082.
  • ISO/IEC Directives: Guide the development and amendment process for ISO standards to ensure technical accuracy and stakeholder participation.

Why ISO 18082:2014/Amd 1:2017 Matters

By updating critical dimensions and nomenclature related to NIST low-pressure connectors, this amendment contributes to reducing medical gas misconnections-one of the key patient safety issues in hospitals. It harmonizes terminology to reflect medical gas compositions accurately, aiding healthcare providers and manufacturers in maintaining a high degree of clarity and operational safety in anaesthesia and respiratory therapy equipment worldwide.

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.
