Cardiac pacemakers — Part 1: Implantable pacemakers

This standard is valid for all types of implantable pacemakers and specifies as well the basic terms and definitions as the requirements for designation and packaging of pacemakers. In connection with the corresponding test methods minimum requirements are given for the ability of a pacemaker generator to resist adverse environmental conditions. The annexes A to F contain a code system for identification of the mode of operation, test methods, evaluation of livetime, certain forms and the symbols that can be be used instead of written words.
