BSI | 1991 | 90 |
This standard describes a method of declaring the performance parameters to be stated in documents accompanying a lung ventilator, together with test methods to be used to measure the parameters. It does not cover parameters resulting from recent developments such as jet and very high frequency ventilation and oscillation.
Motive power units for lung ventilators together with resuscitators, respiratory therapy ventilators, external body ventilators, rocking apparatus and electrostimulators are outside the scope of this standard.
The object of this standard is to permit the direct comparison of lung ventilators of different manufacture, and to standardize methods for the determination of compliance with the manufacturer’s declared performance.
NOTE The titles of the publications referred to in this standard are listed on the inside back cover.
Includes test methods to be used to measure parameters.
