DIN Standards Committee Health Technologies

Overview

This document has been prepared by CEN/TC 239 "Rescue systems", the secretariat of which is held by DIN (Germany). The preparation was carried out by CEN/TC 239/Working Group 4 "Transportation of incubators". The responsible German committee is NA 053-01-02 "Krankenkraftwagen und deren medizinische und technische Ausstattung" ("Road ambulances and their medical and technical equipment") of the Rescue Services and Hospital Standards Committee (NARK). This European Standard specifies the requirements for the interfaces between the ambulance and the incubator and the associated equipment, needed for care and treatment of infants, used in emergency or planned transports to ensure interchangeability and interoperability and to provide uninterrupted care of patients. This European Standard does not give requirements for the vehicles, crafts, devices or incubators as such; these requirements are found in other standards. However, transport incubators are normally combined with other equipment to form a "transport incubator system".
