6.5.4 DEFAULT ALARM PRESET

הכותרת של סעיף זה אינה מרמזת על תוכנו. התוכן של סעיף זה הוא תהליך האיתחול, ולא ברירת המחדל, שהיא פרט במכלול השיקולים.

6.5.4.1 General requirements

If the DEFAULT ALARM PRESET can be set to values that differ from the MANUFACTURER configured values:

a) means shall be provided to prevent any OPERATOR from storing changes to the DEFAULT ALARM PRESET. Storing changes to the DEFAULT ALARM PRESET shall be restricted to the RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATION (see 6.7); and

b) means shall be provided to the RESPONSIBLE ORGANIZATION to restore the DEFAULT ALARM PRESET to its MANUFACTURER-configured values.

Compliance is checked by inspection.

6.5.4.2 * Selection of DEFAULT ALARM PRESET - Rational

Whenever:

כאן מדובר על מתי עושים את האתחול

a) the OPERATOR switches the ALARM SYSTEM on after an interval specified by the MANUFACTURER as being longer than might be considered unintentional; or

b) the ALARM SYSTEM is enabled; or

c) the OPERATOR indicates to the ALARM SYSTEM, preferably through an “admit new PATIENT” function, that a different PATIENT has been connected to the ALARM SYSTEM; or

d) power is restored to the ALARM SYSTEM after it has experienced a total loss of power (SUPPLY MAINS and/or INTERNAL ELECTRICAL POWER SOURCE) beyond the time that it automatically restores the ALARM SETTINGS (see 6.5.5);

then:

כאן מדובר מה האתחול כולל

e) the DEFAULT ALARM PRESET shall be automatically selected; or

f) means shall be provided for the OPERATOR to select an ALARM PRESET; or

g) means may be provided for the OPERATOR to select the retained ALARM SETTINGS from the previous use.

û       The MANUFACTURER shall disclose in the instructions for use an estimate of the duration of the power interruption after which the ALARM SYSTEM is unable to restore the ALARM SETTINGS and the subsequent behaviour of the ALARM SYSTEM.

במקום זה – היצרן צריך לספק מנגנון לשחזור ערכי האיתחול ברמת היצרן וברמת הארגון. במכשירים בהם נדרש שחזור ערכים שהציב המשתמש (אם יש כאלו), היצרן צריך לספק מנגנון להתרעה על כך שבטריית הגיבוי עומדת להגמר.

ü        Compliance is checked by observing the equipment’s ALARM SETTINGS, then temporarily disconnecting the power source for a period exceeding that indicated in the instructions for use and then inspecting the state of the ALARM SETTINGS. The mains switch, if provided, shall remain in the ‘on’ position during this test. Inspect the ALARM SETTINGS and compare them to the appropriate behaviour.

מעניין למה רק בסעיף זה התקן מפרט את תהליך הבדיקה. אפשר, ואולי צריך לעשות זאת בסעיפים רבים אחרים בתקן.
