DIN EN 60601-2-36:2015-11

This product standard from the standard series DIN EN 606060-1 (VDE 0750-1) describes the safety requirements for equipment for extracorporeally induced lithotripsy including equipment for other medical applications of therapeutic extracorporeally induced focused pressure pulses(for example, fragmentation of kidney and gall stones). The applicability of this particular standard is limited to components directly involved in the LITHOTRIPSY treatment, such as, but not limited to, the generator of the PRESSURE PULSE, PATIENT support device, and their interactions with imaging and monitoring devices. Other devices, such as PATIENT treatment planning computers, X-ray and ultrasonic devices, are excluded from this standard, because they are described in other applicable standards. The responsible committee is DKE/UK 812.2 "Therapie, Chirurgie" ("Therapy, surgery") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
