Description / Abstract:
This part of ISO 5841 specifies requirements for reports on the
clinical performance in humans of population samples of cardiac
pulse generators or leads, intended for long-term implantation,
hereinafter referred to as devices. Devices to be reported have to
be market approved in one or more geographies. It includes general
requirements for all reports and supplementary requirements for
reports on cumulative experience with devices and estimates of
future clinical performance for devices, when appropriate.
Annex A provides requirements for categorizing devices. It also
provides normative requirements for statistical calculations,
including a discussion of application of the results obtained. As
with other statistical methods, the benefit of the analytical
methods in this part of ISO 5841 is limited by the size of
population under consideration. Annex B gives the rationale for
this part of ISO 5841.
