Absorbent incontinence products for urine and/or faeces - Basic principles for evaluation of single-use adult products from the perspective of users and caregivers (ISO 16021:2024)

This document provides guidelines and requirements for designing and conducting an evaluation of single-use adult incontinence absorbing products. It provides guidelines and requirements on creating data collection tools. In particular, it provides a framework for eliciting and recording the views of users and their carers on the acceptability of products. In addition, a product diary is described which can help to quantify some parameters of product use, such as wear times, the mass of urine absorbed by the product and the severity of any leakage from it.
This document does not cover direct comparison between products based on statistical parameters, neither does it provide guidelines on measuring the clinical efficacy of products; that is available in ISO 14155.

Urinaufsaugende Hilfsmittel - Grundprinzipien für die Bewertung von Einmalgebrauchs-Hilfsmitteln für inkontinente Erwachsene aus der Sicht von Anwendern und Pflegekräften (ISO 16021:2024)

Dieses Dokument gibt Anleitungen und Anforderungen für die Gestaltung und Durchführung einer Bewertung von aufsaugenden Einmalgebrauchs-Hilfsmitteln für inkontinente Erwachsene. Es enthält Anleitungen und Anforderungen zur Erstellung von Methoden und Hilfsmitteln zur Datensammlung. Insbesondere bietet es einen Rahmen für die Erhebung und Aufzeichnung der Ansichten von anwendenden Personen und deren Pflegekräften über die Akzeptanz von Produkten. Darüber hinaus wird ein Produkttagebuch beschrieben, mit dessen Hilfe einige Parameter des Produktgebrauchs quantifiziert werden können, z. B. die Tragedauer, die vom Produkt aufgesaugte Urinmenge und das Ausmaß dessen Auslaufens.
Dieses Dokument umfasst nicht den direkten Vergleich von Produkten auf der Grundlage statistischer Parameter und bietet auch keine Anleitung zur Messung der klinischen Wirksamkeit von Produkten; diese ist in ISO 14155 enthalten.

Produits d'incontinence pour l'absorption d'urine et/ou de matières fécales - Principes de base pour l'évaluation des produits à usage unique pour adultes par les utilisateurs et les soignants (ISO 16021:2024)

La présente Norme internationale donne des lignes directrices utiles pour la conception et la conduite d'une évaluation des aides pour absorption pour incontinence pour adultes à usage unique. Elle donne des lignes directrices pour la création d'outils de collecte des données. Elle propose notamment un cadre permettant de sélectionner et d'enregistrer les opinions que les utilisateurs et le personnel soignant peuvent émettre quant aux performances du produit. En outre, elle décrit une approche facultative permettant d'établir les caractéristiques d'étanchéité, la durée d'utilisation des produits et la masse d'urine supportée. La présente Norme internationale ne traite pas de la comparaison directe de plusieurs produits à partir des paramètres statistiques.

Absorpcijski izdelki za inkontinenco urina in/ali blata - Osnovna načela vrednotenja izdelkov za odrasle za enkratno uporabo z vidika uporabnikov in negovalcev (ISO 16021:2024)

Ta dokument podaja smernice in zahteve za načrtovanje in izvedbo vrednotenja absorbcijskih izdelkov za inkontinenco za enkratno uporabo pri odraslih osebah. Zagotavlja smernice in zahteve v zvezi z ustvarjanjem orodij za zbiranje podatkov. Zlasti zagotavlja okvir za pridobivanje in beleženje mnenj uporabnikov ter njihovih negovalcev o sprejemljivosti izdelkov. Opisuje tudi dnevnik izdelka, ki je lahko v pomoč pri določanju nekaterih parametrov uporabe izdelka, kot so čas obrabe, masa urina, ki ga absorbira izdelek, in stopnja morebitnega prepuščanja.
Ta dokument ne zajema neposredne primerjave izdelkov na podlagi statističnih parametrov, niti ne zagotavlja smernic za merjenje klinične učinkovitosti izdelkov; te smernice so na voljo v standardu ISO 14155.

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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described
in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types
of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance
