Scope

YY/T 1992-2025 is the English-translated version of 采用机器人技术的辅助手术设备总结性可用性测试方法.

YY/T 1992 covers the human half of a surgical robot. It specifies the summative usability test methods for robotically assisted surgical equipment: the final validation study, run with representative users on the finished design, that demonstrates the interface can be used safely for its intended tasks. Summative testing is distinct from the formative work done during development, and Chinese reviewers treat the distinction seriously, which is why it has its own standard rather than a clause inside a general one. It was issued on the same day as YY/T 1993 on reliability verification and YY/T 1994 on vascular interventional control systems. For a manufacturer of surgical robots, this is the method the usability engineering file must follow for the Chinese market, and the reference a foreign vendor's IEC 62366 work will be read against.
