EN ISO 9360-2:2009 - Overview

EN ISO 9360-2:2009 (ISO 9360-2:2001) is a CEN-adopted international standard for heat and moisture exchangers (HMEs) used to humidify respired gases in tracheostomized patients with minimum tidal volumes of 250 ml. It defines device requirements, test methods and labelling/packaging expectations for HMEs without machine connector ports (including devices that incorporate breathing system filters). The European adoption (EN ISO 9360-2:2009) aligns the standard with EU medical device directives and national implementation across CEN member states.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Scope and purpose
    • HMEs intended for tracheostomized patients (tidal volume ≥ 250 ml).
  • Connectors and ports
    • Patient port: must mate with a 15 mm male connector in accordance with ISO 5356-1.
    • Additional ports: where present, connectors for breathing attachments shall be 15 mm male and/or 22 mm conical (ISO 5356-1).
    • Accessory ports: must not accept the 15 mm or 22 mm connectors of ISO 5356 series.
  • Sterile packaging
    • HMEs supplied sterile shall comply with ISO 11607 packaging requirements for terminally sterilized medical devices.
  • Performance testing
    • Defines test apparatus and reference methods for performance evaluation, notably measurement of moisture loss from a standardized test rig.
    • Test rig components include a bidirectional flow generator (mechanically driven piston), a humidity generator (heated water bath, reservoir and thermally insulated chamber), and an air delivery system.
    • Environmental test conditions: 23°C ± 2°C, relative humidity 50% ± 20%, atmospheric pressure 86–106 kPa.
  • Definitions
    • Includes specific terms (e.g., HME internal volume) and references ISO vocabulary standards.

Practical applications and who uses it

  • Manufacturers of HMEs and breathing system filters use this standard to design, test and mark devices for clinical use with tracheostomized patients.
  • Test laboratories and quality departments apply the specified test methods and environmental conditions to verify moisture retention, connector compatibility and packaging.
  • Regulatory and compliance teams use EN ISO 9360-2:2009 to demonstrate conformity with EU Directive 93/42/EEC (medical devices) and for CE marking evidence.
  • Procurement officers and clinical engineers consult the standard when specifying HMEs for ICUs, long-term ventilation and tracheostomy care.

Related standards

  • ISO 9360-1:2000 (HMEs for minimum tidal volumes of 250 ml - general)
  • ISO 4135 (Anaesthetic and respiratory equipment - Vocabulary)
  • ISO 5356-1 (Conical connectors - Cones and sockets)

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 3.
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 part of ISO 9360 may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 9360-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 121, Anaesthetic and respiratory
equipment, Subcommittee SC 3, Lung ventilators and related equipment.
This first edition of ISO 9360-2 cancels and replaces, in part, the first edition of ISO 9360 (ISO 9360:1992), which
has been technically revised.
ISO 9360 consists of the following parts, under the general title Anaesthetic and respiratory equipment — Heat and
moisture exchangers (HMEs) for humidifying respired gases in humans:
� Part 1: HMEs for use with minimum tidal volumes of 250 ml
