Hello -
My company is developing a product to comply IEC 60601-2-34 (Invasive Blood Pressure Monitoring Equipment) This standard identifies "accuracy of pressure measurements" as essential performance.
Our risk analysis identifies a number of detectable component failures that may cause measurements to be be inaccurate (outside of the tolerance allowed by the standard). In these circumstance, the operator would be alerted via a technical alarm / warning message. Our team is trying to determine whether it is also necessary to completely disable the measurement function so potentially inaccurate data *cannot* be displayed.
Thoughts on what the standard intends?
Thanks!
