This document is not intended to replace or provide alternatives for unipolar or bipolar connector standards that currently exist (such as ISO 11318 and ISO 5841-3). This document is not applicable to high-voltage systems with intended outputs greater than 1 000 V and/or 50 A. This document is not applicable to systems which include sensors or unique electrodes that are not capable of conventional pacing, electrogram sensing and/or defibrillation functions. This document does not specify all connector features. This document does not address all aspects of functional compatibility, safety or reliability of leads and pulse generators assembled into a system. NOTE Lead and pulse generator connector systems not conforming to this document can be safe and reliable and can have clinical advantages.

The tests that are specified in this document are type tests, and are to be carried out on samples of a device to show compliance. This document was designed for bradyarrhythmia pulse generators used with endocardial leads or epicardial leads. At the time of this edition, the authors recognized the emergence of leadless technologies for which adaptations of this part will be required. Such adaptations are left to the discretion of manufacturers incorporating these technologies. This document is also applicable to some non-implantable parts and accessories of the devices (see Note 1). The electrical characteristics of the implantable pulse generator or lead are determined either by the appropriate method detailed in this particular standard or by any other method demonstrated to have an accuracy equal to, or better than, the method specified. In case of dispute, the method detailed in this particular standard applies. Any features of an active implantable medical device intended to treat tachyarrhythmias are covered by ISO 14708-6. NOTE 1 The device that is commonly referred to as an active implantable medical device can in fact be a single device, a combination of devices, or a combination of a device or devices and one or more accessories. Not all of these parts are required to be either partially or totally implantable, but there is a need to specify some requirements of non-implantable parts and accessories if they could affect the safety or performance of the implantable device. NOTE 2 In this document, terms printed in italics are used as defined in Clause 3. Where a defined term is used as a qualifier in another term, it is not printed in italics unless the concept thus qualified is also defined.

This document specifies test methodologies for the evaluation of the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) of active implantable cardiovascular devices that provide one or more therapies for bradycardia, tachycardia and cardiac resynchronization in conjunction with transvenous lead systems. NOTE This document was designed for pulse generators used with endocardial leads or epicardial leads. At the time of this edition, the authors recognized the emergence of technologies that do not use endocardial leads or epicardial leads for which adaptations of this part will be required. Such adaptations are left to the discretion of manufacturers incorporating these technologies. It specifies performance limits of these devices, which are subject to interactions with EM emitters operating across the EM spectrum in the two following ranges: — 0 Hz ≤ ? — 385 MHz ≤ ? ≤ 3 000 MHz This document also specifies requirements for the protection of these devices from EM fields encountered in a therapeutic environment and defines their required accompanying documentation, providing manufacturers of EM emitters with information about their expected level of immunity.

ISO/TS 10974:2018 is applicable to implantable parts of active implantable medical devices (AIMDs) intended to be used in patients who undergo a magnetic resonance scan in 1,5 T, cylindrical (circular or elliptical cross-section) bore, whole body MR scanners operating at approximately 64 MHz with whole body coil excitation. NOTE 1 Requirements for non-implantable parts are outside the scope of this document. The tests that are specified in this document are type tests that characterize interactions with the magnetic and electromagnetic fields associated with an MR scanner. The tests can be used to demonstrate device operation according to its MR Conditional labelling. The tests are not intended to be used for the routine testing of manufactured products. NOTE 2 Modification of these tests for particular device types is left to particular product committees. NOTE 3 Other interested parties, such as device manufacturers, regulatory agencies, and particular product committees, are responsible for setting specific compliance criteria and determining risk. NOTE 4 Safety requirements for MR scanners can be found in IEC 60601‑2‑33. NOTE 5 The scope is limited to AIMDs that do not use sensing functions or to AIMDs that are programmed not to use sensing functions to affect therapy delivery during an MR scan.
