Foreword
This Standard identically uses ISO 15223.2000 Medical devices -- Symbols to
be used with medical device labels, labelling and information to be supplied
(English version) and Amendment 1 (2001). Since any standard shall be
revised, at the time of publication of this Standard, the dated references shall
apply to this Standard; for undated reference documents, the latest versions
(including any modifications) shall apply.
Annex A is informative.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this Standard
may be the subject of patent rights. SAC/TC221 Standardization Technical
Committee for Quality Assurance and General Requirements for Medical
Devices shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent
rights.
This Standard was proposed by State Food and Drug Administration Medical
Devices Division.
This Standard shall be under the jurisdiction of SAC/TC221 Standardization
Technical Committee for Quality Assurance and General Requirements for
Medical Devices.
The drafting organizations of this Standard. Standardization Technical
Committee for Quality Assurance and General Requirements for Medical
Devices, Beijing Huaguang Certification of Medical Devices Co., Ltd. (former
China Medical Device Quality Certification Center).
Main drafters of this Standard. Wu Junhua, Qin Shuhua, Zhang Mingzhu,
Zheng Yihan, Wang Huifang, Chen Zhigang.
Introduction
This Standard considers certain items of information that may be considered
by regulatory authorities to be essential for the safe and proper use of
medical devices. As such, the items are required by laws and regulations of
certain political jurisdictions to be presented with the device. This information
may be required on the device itself, as part of the label of the device on its
packaging, or provided with the device in an information document.
There is a considerable degree of international harmonization of the
information to be provided. However, there is no harmonization with regard to
the language to be used when presenting this information. This presents
potential problems to manufacturers, users and regulatory authorities.
Device manufacturers, desiring to minimize the indirect costs not associated
with healthcare purposes, seek to minimize costs of labelling by reducing or
rationalizing labelling variants. In the European Union alone, there are
thirteen languages that may be required. This presents a major problem of
design and logistics. In addition, technical translation can present difficulties
in transferring the precise meaning from one language to another.
Users may be presented with devices labelled in a number of different
languages. This may cause confusion and delay in locating the appropriate
language. It may also create confusion as to precise meanings for multilingual
users.
Regulatory authorities may be presented with labelling not in their national
language and have difficulty in ascertaining the safety and fitness for use of a
device required in emergencies or other exceptional circumstances.
This Standard proposes solutions to these problems through the use of
internationally recognized symbols, with precisely defined meanings that
transcend language.
Medical devices - Symbols to be used with medical
device labels, labelling and information to be supplied
1 Scope
This Standard identifies symbols conventionally used to convey information
essential for proper use to the user and others for safe and effective use of
medical devices. This Standard is primarily intended to be used by.
- manufacturers of medical devices who market their products in a
number of countries having different language requirements for
medical device labelling;
- users of medical devices who draw their supplies from a number of
sources and may have varied language capabilities;
- those responsible for post-market surveillance;
- health care regulatory authorities, testing organizations, certification
bodies and other organizations responsible for implementing
regulations affecting medical devices and having responsibility for
post-market surveillance.
This Standard may also be of assistance to.
- manufacturers having to cope with space limitations on small labels;
- distributors of medical devices or other representatives of
manufacturers;
- health care authorities responsible for training as well as those being
trained.
NOTE. This Standard deals with a small number of symbols that may be used when
appropriate on the device itself, its package or in the accompanying documentation. Many
other standards, such as IEC 60601-1, specify additional symbols that are applicable to
particular kinds or groups of devices, or to particular situations.
