Overview

SIST EN ISO 8536-5:2013 specifies the requirements for burette infusion sets for single use, gravity feed, used in medical settings for intravenous infusion therapy. These burette sets are designed in nominal capacities of 50 ml, 100 ml, and 150 ml, ensuring compatibility with infusion solution containers and other intravenous equipment. The standard focuses on the safety, compatibility, and performance of these disposable medical devices while providing guidelines on the quality of materials used in their production.

Infusion therapy is critical in healthcare, requiring equipment that guarantees precise and controlled medication or fluid delivery. Burette infusion sets address this need by allowing accurate measurement and administration, especially for pediatric and critical care patients. By adhering to this internationally recognized standard, manufacturers and healthcare providers can ensure high levels of patient safety, device reliability, and regulatory compliance.

Key Topics

  • Design and Nominal Capacities: The standard covers burette infusion sets of 50 ml, 100 ml, and 150 ml nominal capacities, providing guidance for their construction and volume graduation.
  • Compatibility: Ensures that the infusion sets are compatible with standard containers for infusion solutions and intravenous equipment, promoting interchangeability and efficiency in medical settings.
  • Material Quality and Performance: Specifies requirements and guidelines for the selection, quality, and performance of materials that come into contact with infusion solutions, to maintain safety and integrity.
  • Sterility and Single Use: Addresses the need for sterile, single-use design to help prevent cross-contamination and infection.
  • National Regulations: Recognizes that national pharmacopoeia or regulations may have precedence, emphasizing the importance of compliance with local legal requirements alongside this standard.

Applications

Burette infusion sets covered by ISO 8536-5:2013 have significant practical value across various healthcare settings:

  • Hospitals and Clinics: Routine intravenous therapy, including precise delivery of medications, fluids, or nutrients, particularly for pediatric and neonatal care where dosage accuracy is essential.
  • Emergency Care: Rapid and controlled fluid administration in emergency departments or during patient transfers.
  • Day-Care Centers and Outpatient Facilities: Short-duration infusions where disposable, accurate, and easy-to-use equipment is preferred for infection control.
  • Home Healthcare: Some burette infusion sets may be suitable for supervised patient care at home, given their ease of use and reliable measurement capability.
  • Standardized Procurement: Healthcare institutions benefit from standardized equipment that simplifies training, inventory management, and safety protocols.

Using burette infusion sets that conform to this standard helps support regulatory compliance (such as with EU Directive 93/42/EEC on Medical Devices), best practices in infusion therapy, and continuity of care across international borders.

Related Standards

The SIST EN ISO 8536-5:2013 standard is part of a comprehensive series focused on infusion equipment for medical use. Relevant related standards include:

  • ISO 8536-1: Infusion glass bottles
  • ISO 8536-2: Closures for infusion bottles
  • ISO 8536-3: Aluminium caps for infusion bottles
  • ISO 8536-4: Infusion sets for single use, gravity feed
  • ISO 8536-6: Freeze drying closures for infusion bottles
  • ISO 8536-8: Infusion sets for use with pressure infusion equipment
  • ISO 8536-9: Fluid lines for pressure infusion equipment
  • ISO 10993 series: Biological evaluation of medical devices

Healthcare organizations, device manufacturers, and procurement specialists should be aware of these standards to ensure comprehensive compliance, safety, and interoperability of all intravenous therapy equipment.
