This document specifies the requirements and methods for the clinical investigation of me equipment used for the intermittent non-invasive automated estimation of the arterial blood pressure by utilizing a cuff.
This document is applicable to all sphygmomanometers that sense or display pulsations, flow or sounds for the estimation, display or recording of blood pressure. These sphygmomanometers need not have automatic cuff inflation.
This document covers sphygmomanometers intended for use in all patient populations (e.g. all age and weight ranges), and all conditions of use (e.g. ambulatory blood pressure monitoring, stress testing blood pressure monitoring and blood pressure monitors for the home healthcare environment for self-measurement as well as use in a professional healthcare facility).
EXAMPLE Automated sphygmomanometer as given in IEC 80601-2-30 undergoing clinical investigation according to this document.
This document specifies additional disclosure requirements for the accompanying documents of sphygmomanometers that have passed a clinical investigation according to this document.
This document is not applicable to clinical investigations of non-automated sphygmomanometers as given in ISO 81060-1 or invasive blood pressure monitoring equipment as given in IEC 60601-2-34.

This document applies to printed, projected, and electronic displays of high-contrast text that are designed for assessment and measurement of near reading acuity under photopic conditions
The definitions and requirements of this document apply to the Latin alphabet.

This document applies to the basic safety and essential performance of ventilatory support equipment, as defined in 201.3.205, for ventilatory impairment, as defined in 201.3.202, hereafter also referred to as me equipment, in combination with its accessories: — intended for use in the home healthcare environment; — intended for use by a lay operator; and — intended for use with patients who have ventilatory impairment, the most fragile of these patients, would not likely experience injury with the loss of this artificial ventilation; and — not intended for patients who are dependent on artificial ventilation for their immediate life support. EXAMPLE 1 Patients with mild to moderate chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). NOTE 1 In the home healthcare environment, the supply mains is often not reliable. NOTE 2 Such ventilatory support equipment can also be used in non-critical care applications of professional health care facilities. This document is also applicable to those accessories intended by their manufacturer to be connected to the breathing system of ventilatory support equipment for ventilatory impairment, where the characteristics of those accessories can affect the basic safety or essential performance of the ventilatory support equipment for ventilatory impairment. EXAMPLE 2 Breathing sets, connectors, water traps, expiratory valve, humidifier, breathing system filter, external electrical power source, distributed alarm system. If a clause or subclause is specifically intended to be applicable to me equipment only, or to me systems only, the title and content of that clause or subclause will say so. If that is not the case, the clause or subclause applies both to me equipment and to me systems, as relevant. Hazards inherent in the intended physiological function of me equipment or me systems within the scope of this document are not covered by specific requirements in this document except in IEC 60601‑1:2005+AMD1:2012, 7.2.13 and 8.4.1. NOTE 3 Additional information can be found in IEC 60601‑1:2005+AMD1:2012, 4.2. This document does not specify the requirements for: — ventilators or accessories for ventilator-dependent patients intended for critical care applications, which are given in ISO 80601‑2‑12; — ventilators or accessories intended for anaesthetic applications, which are given in ISO 80601‑2‑13[4]; — ventilators or accessories intended for the emergency medical services environment, which are given in ISO 80601‑2‑84 [5] [1], the future replacement for ISO 10651‑3[6]; — ventilators or accessories intended for ventilator-dependent patients in the home healthcare environment, which are given in ISO 80601‑2‑72; — ventilatory support equipment or accessories intended for ventilatory insufficiency, which are given in ISO 80601‑2‑80[1]; — sleep apnoea therapy me equipment, which are given in ISO 80601‑2‑70[7]; — continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) me equipment; — high-frequency jet ventilators (HFJVs); — high-frequency oscillatory ventilators (HFOVs)[8]; — oxygen therapy constant flow me equipment; — cuirass or "iron-lung" ventilation equipment. This document is a document in the IEC 60601 and IEC/ISO 80601 series of documents. [1] Under preparation. Stage at the time of publication: ISO/DIS 80601-2-84:2017.

This document applies to the basic safety and essential performance of ventilatory support equipment, as defined in 201.3.205, for ventilatory insufficiency, as defined in 201.3.204, hereafter also referred to as me equipment, in combination with its accessories: — intended for use in the home healthcare environment; — intended for use by a lay operator; — intended for use with patients who have ventilatory insufficiency or failure, the most fragile of which would likely experience injury with the loss of this artificial ventilation; — intended for transit-operable use; — not intended for patients who are dependent on artificial ventilation for their immediate life support. EXAMPLE 1 Patients with moderate to severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), moderate amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia or muscular dystrophy. NOTE 1 In the home healthcare environment, the supply mains is often not reliable.
