Foreword

This Standard is developed in accordance with the international standard ISO

8600.1997 "Medical endoscopes and endoscopic accessories". In terms of

technical content, it is not equivalent to ISO 8600.1997.

Used in conjunction with this Standard is GB 9706.19-2000 "Medical electrical

equipment - Part 2.Particular requirements for the safety of endoscopic

equipment". The main technical differences between this Standard and ISO

8600 are as follows.

- Incorporate all the inspection methods of ISO 8600-3 and ISO 8600-4 and

the inspection provisions of ISO 8600-1 into this Standard.

- According to the actual situation of China, the environmental test adopts

the relevant regulations of GB/T 14710.

- ADD the requirement of coincidence of lighting source and observation field

of view.

- The shape and size of the eyepiece are identical to the requirements of

DIN58105 "Requirements and inspection of medical endoscopes".

- ADD the requirements for inspection rules, packaging, transportation and

storage.

devices which go deep into the natural or surgically opened pores of the human

body for examination, diagnosis or treatment.

3.2

Endoscope accessory

Medical devices which can penetrate the endoscope into the natural or

surgically opened pores of the human body; or medical devices which can be

used for inspection, treatment, or diagnosis with an endoscope.

3.3

Rigid endoscope

The endoscope (endoscope accessory) of which the insertion portion cannot

be bent into the human body's natural or surgically opened pore or instrument

channel.

3.4

Flexible endoscope

The endoscope (endoscope accessory) of which the insertion portion can freely

bend into the human body's natural or surgically opened pore or instrument

channel.

3.5

French; Fr

The measurement method for the size of the endoscope with circular or non-

circular cross-section, which is defined as.

4 Requirements

4.1 Surface and edge

4.2 Maximum insertion portion width

The maximum insertion portion width must not be larger than the size specified

in the instructions for use provided by the manufacturer. See 8.2 c).

4.3 Minimum insertion channel width

The minimum insertion channel width must not be less than the size specified

in the instructions for use provided by the manufacturer. See 8.2 h).

4.4 Field of view

If the manufacturer has no other special regulations, the deviation of the field of

view of optical endoscope from the nominal value provided by the manufacturer

shall not exceed 15%. In the product catalog and manual materials, the

description of the field of view is not mandatory.

4.7 Coincidence of lighting source and observation field of view

At the working distance, the illumination spot shall fill the field of view, without

obvious dividing line between bright and dark.

4.8 Safety

Endoscopes and endoscope accessories shall meet the requirements of GB

9706.1.

4.9 Biocompatibility

The outer surface material of the insertion portion is an external access device,

which is in short-term contact with the tissue. Its biocompatibility shall be

evaluated according to the requirements of GB/T 16886.1-2001.

5 Type inspection

5.1 Surface and edge

Under sufficient lighting, use visual inspection and hand feel inspection. It shall

meet the requirements of 4.1, without the need for magnifying tools.

5.2 Maximum insertion portion width

5.2.1 Scope

This section gives the measurement method for the maximum insertion portion

width of medical endoscopes and endoscope accessories. It can be expressed

in millimeters or French (millimeters).

5.2.3 Accuracy of measuring instrument

An instrument with an accuracy of 0.05 mm (such as vernier calipers) shall be

used for measurement. If the French size of the perimeter is measured, an

instrument with an accuracy of 0.5 mm (such as a tape measure or similar

measuring tool) shall be used.

5.2.4 Measurement process
5.2.4.1 Readings in millimeters

For the measurement of readings in millimeters, it shall measure the maximum
