CSA Preface<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This is the third edition of CAN\/CSA-C22.2 No. 60601-1, Medical electrical equipment – Part 1: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance, which is an adoption, with Canadian deviations, of the identically titled IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) Standard 60601-1 (third edition, 2005-12), including Amendment 1:2012. It supersedes the previous edition, published in 2008 as CAN\/CSA-C22.2 No. 60601-1 (adopted IEC 60601-1:2005). For brevity, this Standard will be referred to as CAN\/CSA-C22.2 No. 60601-1 throughout. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Scope<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

1.1 * Scope<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This International Standard applies to the BASIC SAFETY and ESSENTIAL PERFORMANCE of MEDICAL ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT and MEDICAL ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS, hereafter referred to as ME EQUIPMENT and ME SYSTEMS. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

If a clause or subclause is specifically intended to be applicable to ME EQUIPMENT only, or to ME SYSTEMS only, the title and content of that clause or subclause will say so. If that is not the case, the clause or subclause applies both to ME EQUIPMENT and to ME SYSTEMS, as relevant. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

HAZARDS inherent in the intended physiological function of ME EQUIPMENT or ME SYSTEMS within the scope of this standard are not covered by specific requirements in this standard except in 7.2.13 and 8.4.1. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Note: See also 4.2. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This Standard can also be applied to equipment used for compensation or alleviation of disease, injury or disability. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In vitro diagnostic equipment that does not fall within the definition of ME EQUIPMENT is covered by the IEC 61010 series 2). This Standard does not apply to the implantable parts of active implantable medical devices covered by ISO 14708-1 3). <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

1.2 Object <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The object of this standard is to specify general requirements and to serve as the basis for particular standards. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
