DIN EN IEC 60601-2-50:2024-09

These particular requirements set out safety requirements for infant phototherapy equipment, but alternate methods of compliance with a specific clause by demonstrating equivalent safety will not be judged as non-compliant if the manufacturer has demonstrated in his risk management file that the risk presented by the hazard has been found to be of an acceptable level when weighed against the benefit of treatment from the device. The purpose of these particular requirements is to establish specific requirements for the basic safety and essential performance characteristics of infant phototherapy equipment, to reduce hazards to patients and operators as much as possible, and to specify tests that can be used to verify compliance with the requirements.
