Topic: “Implications of the Electro-medical Standards IEC 60601-1-11:2010 & Proposed IEC 60601-1-12” The Medical Electrical Device Collateral Standards in the Home Healthcare Environment and the Proposed Emergency Medical Services Environment, respectively
Presenter: Leo Eisner of Eisner Safety Consultants
When: March 3, 2011 (Thursday), 8:30 – 9:30AM (Pacific), 11:30AM – 12:30PM (Eastern)
Where: At your office or conference room (No travel required)
What’s it about: Get up to speed on the latest and developing requirements for the electro-medical collateral standards for the home healthcare environment (HHE) IEC 60601-1-11:2010 and the proposed IEC 60601-1-12 standard for the emergency medical environment (EMS). Is your company ready for the implications of these standards as you will have regulatory requirements for the HHE standard come up soon (depending on the country of concern) and it will be similar once the EMS standard is published.
In this audio conference, Leo Eisner guides you through IEC 60601-1-11:2010 with new definitions, additions and changes to the general standard. The presentation reviews the significant issues including earthing requirements and additional mechanical and environmental tests. It also compares the requirements of each standard to provide a perspective on what the EMS may look like vs. the HHE standard.

Topic: “Make sense of the IEC 60601-1-11 standard” The Medical Electrical Device Collateral Standard in the Home Healthcare Environment
Presenters: Leo Eisner of Eisner Safety Consultants will be co-presenting with Joseph Murnane of Underwriters Laboratories
When: Feb 10, 2011 (Thursday)
Where: Anaheim Convention Center while you are at the MD&M West Conference
What’s it about: The market for home healthcare equipment is expected to grow exponentially over the coming years, as the delivery of healthcare services shifts from clinical settings to the home. But manufacturers face a series of unique challenges in supplying home healthcare equipment that is both effective and safe. IEC 60601-1-11 “Requirements for Medical Electrical Equipment and Medical Electrical Systems Used in Home Care Applications” was recently published to address the safety hazards that exist when medical devices are moved into the home. IEC 60601-1-11 is a collateral standard, meaning that it directly references provisions in IEC 60601-1, and is used in conjunction with IEC 60601-1 for the certification of home healthcare equipment. In addition to the publication of the new standard, FDA has launched the Medical Device Home Use Initiative, which is expected to impact the regulatory approvals of medical devices for use in the home. In this presentation, two leading experts in medical device safety, one who participated in the writing of IEC 60601-1-11 and the other working on a sister standard for the emergency medical services type electrical medical devices, will discuss the major considerations all design engineers must consider whern designing a medical devices that may be marketed for home use.
