[SOURCE: ISO 80601-2-12:2023, 201.3.298]
201.4
Add the following subclause:
201.4.5 Alternative risk control measures or test methods for ME equipment or ME system
Amendment (add prior to the compliance check):
aa) Subsequent revisions of dated references (new editions or amendments) may be used in
substitution of a referenced document provided the manufacturer can demonstrate the hazard or
hazardous situation addressed in the dated normative reference is adequately resolved in the
subsequent revision.
201.4.10.101*
Add the following new NOTE below NOTE 2:
ISO 80601-2-13:2022/DAM 1:2025(en)
NOTE 3 Anaesthetic workstations can provide the supply gas to drive other devices such as high flow
therapy, oxygen flow meters or suction equipment. See also 201.7.9.2.101 qq).
201.4
Add the following subclause:
201.4.11* System recovery
NOTE 1 There is guidance or rationale for this subclause contained in Clause AA.
a) Following a malfunction, the anaesthetic workstation should perform a system recovery to
attempt to restore essential performance of the anaesthetic workstation.
NOTE 2 An anaesthetic workstation or a subassembly function can become disturbed by a malfunction
that could jeopardize the essential performance of the anaesthetic workstation. Without system recovery, the
patient would have to be disconnected and connected to an alternative means of ventilation or gas delivery.
Ventilation or gas delivery would thus be interrupted until an alternative means of ventilation or gas delivery
is connected. System recovery, as specified in this subclause, attempts to automatically re-establish ventilation
or gas delivery in a shorter period. If necessary, the anaesthetic workstation can be replaced later when it has
fewer consequences for the patient´s therapy.
b) System recovery may result in the temporary:
1) cessation in the ventilation or gas delivery leading to risk of harm; or
2) reduction in the function of anaesthetic workstation subassemblies without cessation of
ventilation or gas delivery.
EXAMPLE  The temporary blanking of the display.
c) During a system recovery with a cessation of ventilation or gas delivery that could lead to a
hazardous situation:
1)  the anaesthetic workstation shall allow spontaneous patient breathing and should allow
manual ventilation in accordance with 201.102.12; and
NOTE During a system recovery, there may be a short period where manual ventilation is not possible
because the pneumatic system may have to be restarted by the anaesthetic workstation.
2)  the anaesthetic workstation shall be equipped with an alarm system to indicate system
recovery with a cessation of ventilation or gas delivery.
i) The alarm condition for a system recovery with a cessation of ventilation or gas
delivery shall be high priority or may be an alternative alarm signal. The type of
alternative alarm signal or alarm condition delay and alarm signal generation delay
for the alarm signal shall be documented in the risk management file.
d) During a system recovery without a cessation of ventilation or gas delivery, the anaesthetic
workstation shall be equipped with an alarm system to indicate system recovery without a
cessation of ventilation or gas delivery.
1) The alarm condition for system recovery without a cessation of ventilation or gas delivery
shall be at least low priority with an auditory alarm signal or may be an alternative alarm
signal. The type of alternative alarm signal or alarm condition delay and alarm signal
generation delay for the alarm signal shall be documented in the risk management file.
ISO 80601-2-13:2022/DAM 1:2025(en)
e) Following a system recovery without operator intervention, the anaesthetic workstation shall
attempt to operate with the same system configuration settings, ventilation or gas delivery
settings and alarm settings as before the system recovery.
1) If ventilation settings, gas delivery settings or alarm settings are different after the system
recovery, the anaesthetic workstation alarm system shall indicate any change in settings.
2)   The change in settings alarm conditions shall be at least medium priority.
f) The duration of a system recovery with a cessation of ventilation or gas delivery should be as
short as practicable to avoid an unacceptable risk to the patient and shall be documented in the
risk management file.
g) The maximum duration of a system recovery of ventilation or gas delivery shall be disclosed in
the instructions for use.
Check conformance by inspection of the instructions for use, inspection of the risk management file
and functional testing.
201.7

201.14
Add the following subclause:
201.14.102 Cybersecurity capabilities of an anaesthetic workstation
a) An anaesthetic workstation should contribute to the safe operation related to cybersecurity.
b) Risk control measures as specified in IEC/TR 60601-4-5:2021, Clauses 4 to 7, should be implemented, as
appropriate, with the following additions to IEC/TR 60601-4-5:2021, 4.6.3.
1) Essential function: Data interfaces to an IT-network connection may be subject to attack (via
physical or logical disconnection). After disconnection of all data interfaces, if it is necessary to
restart the anaesthetic workstation, all clinical functions except the affected remote
functionality should be in place and operate as intended.
2) Firecall functions: As an anaesthetic workstation is used with healthcare professional operator
supervision, the user interface need not require authentication for operators and thus need not
require firecall functions. If authentication for operators to operator accessible settings is in
place also for the user interface, a firecall function should be able to overrule that operator
authentication combined with a log entry protected against modifications by the operator (i.e.
responsible organization log). IT-network interfaces including those for remote access typically
require authentication but should not include firecall functions.
3) Target security level SL-T: For user interfaces and for remote setting of clinical functions, the
expected security level of SL-T, as specified in IEC/TR 60601-4-5:2021, is 1 or better.
Authentication is not required for operators of the user interface of the anaesthetic
workstation. Authentication is required for remote access through a data interface. The
expected security level of SL-T, as specified in IEC/TR 60601-4-5:2021, is 2 or better for secure
updates or restorage of software, remotely or locally.

127 201.3.246
128 waste volatile anaesthetic agent capture system
129 system that collects and stores waste volatile anaesthetic agents from the exhaust port of a breathing
130 system
131 201.4
132 Add the following subclause:
133 201.4.3.101 System recovery
134 NOTE 1 There is guidance or rationale for this subclause contained in Clause AA.
135 a) Following a malfunction, the anaesthetic workstation should perform a system recovery to attempt
136 to restore essential performance of the anaesthetic workstation.
137 NOTE 2 An anaesthetic workstation or a subassembly function can become disturbed by a malfunction that
138 could jeopardize the essential performance of the anaesthetic workstation. Without system recovery, the patient
139 would have to be disconnected and connected to an alternative means of ventilation or gas delivery. Ventilation
140 or gas delivery would thus be interrupted until an alternative means of ventilation or gas delivery is connected.
141 System recovery, as specified in this subclause, attempts to automatically re-establish ventilation or gas delivery
142 in a shorter period. If necessary, the anaesthetic workstation can be replaced later when it has fewer
143 consequences for the patient´s therapy.
144 b) System recovery may result in the temporary:
145 1) cessation in the ventilation or gas delivery leading to risk of harm; or
146 2) reduction in the function of anaesthetic workstation subassemblies without cessation of
147 ventilation or gas delivery.
148 EXAMPLE  The temporary blanking of the display.
149 c) During a system recovery with a cessation of ventilation or gas delivery that could lead to a
150 hazardous situation:
151 1)  the anaesthetic workstation shall allow spontaneous patient breathing. Manual ventilation shall
152 be available within 15 s in accordance with 201.102.12; and
153 NOTE 3 During a system recovery, there can be a short period where manual ventilation is not possible
154 because the pneumatic system may have to be restarted by the anaesthetic workstation.
155 2)  the anaesthetic workstation shall be equipped with an alarm system to indicate system recovery
156 with a cessation of ventilation or gas delivery.
157 i) The alarm condition for a system recovery with a cessation of ventilation or gas delivery
158 shall be high priority or may be an alternative alarm signal. The type of alternative
159 alarm signal or alarm condition delay and alarm signal generation delay for the alarm
160 signal shall be documented in the risk management file.
161 d) During a system recovery without a cessation of ventilation or gas delivery, the anaesthetic
162 workstation shall be equipped with an alarm system to indicate system recovery without a
163 cessation of ventilation or gas delivery.
164 1) The alarm condition for system recovery without a cessation of ventilation or gas delivery shall
165 be at least low priority with an auditory alarm signal or may be an alternative alarm signal. The
166 type of alternative alarm signal or alarm condition delay and alarm signal generation delay for
167 the alarm signal shall be documented in the risk management file.
ISO 80601-2-13:2022/DAM 1.2:2025(en)
168 e) Following a system recovery without operator intervention, the anaesthetic workstation shall
169 attempt to operate with the same system configuration settings, ventilation or gas delivery
170 settings and alarm settings as before the system recovery.
171 1) If ventilation settings, gas delivery settings or alarm settings are different after the system
172 recovery, the anaesthetic workstation alarm system shall indicate any change in settings.
173  2)   The alarm generated shall be at least medium priority.
174 f) The duration of a system recovery with a cessation of ventilation or gas delivery should be as short
175 as practicable to avoid an unacceptable risk to the patient and shall be documented in the risk
176 management file.
177 g) The maximum duration of a system recovery of ventilation or gas delivery shall be disclosed in the
178 instructions for use.
179 Check conformance by inspection of the instructions for use, inspection of the risk management file and
180 functional testing.
181 201.4
182 Add the following subclause:
183 201.4.5 Alternative risk control measures or test methods for ME equipment or ME system
184 Amendment (add prior to the compliance check):
185 aa) Subsequent revisions of dated references (new editions or amendments) may be used in
186 substitution of a referenced document provided the manufacturer can demonstrate the hazard or
187 hazardous situation addressed in the dated normative reference is adequately resolved in the
188 subsequent revision.
189 201.4.10.101*
190 Add the following new NOTE below NOTE 2:
191 NOTE 3 Anaesthetic workstations can provide the supply gas to drive other devices such as high flow
192 therapy, oxygen flow meters or suction equipment. See also 201.7.9.2.101 qq).

216 conditionally compatible or incompatible with Oxygen 90+. A workstation that can be used with
217 Oxygen 90+ with restrictions shall be rated conditionally compatible with Oxygen 90+, see
218 201.7.9.2.101, ii).
219 An Oxygen 90+ compatibility marking shall be placed on the anaesthetic workstation, next to the gas
220 supply connectors. A single marking is sufficient to cover all components that are described in the
221 instructions for use of the anaesthetic workstation.
222 NOTE Symbols for the marking of compatibility with Oxygen 90+ will be defined in ISO 7000.

251 Replace the text in list item a) by the following:
252 a) A means of protection against accidental adjustment of operating controls that can create a
253 hazardous situation shall be provided. This includes:
254  deactivating fresh gas flow to a patient permanently (i.e. not reactivating without user
255 interaction);
256  deactivating the anaesthetic vapour delivery system permanently (i.e. not reactivating
257 without user interaction);
258  activating the standby mode of an anaesthetic workstation;
259  accidental turning off of the anaesthetic workstation or its individual components.
260 The means for preventing an accidental adjustment shall be single fault safe.
261 The means preventing the accidental adjustment as listed above shall be analysed and documented
262 in the risk management file.
263 EXAMPLE 1 Requiring a confirmation step can be one method. The same confirmation step as for any
264 other adjustment might not be appropriate.
265 NOTE 1  Logging of each single operator adjustment leading to permanent deactivation of fresh gas
266 flow or vapour delivery, activation of the standby mode or turning off the anaesthetic workstation or its
267 individual components can help investigating adverse events.
268 NOTE 2 Detecting patient breathing activity during standby or when no fresh gas is being delivered
269 to the patient and announcing an alarm signal (e.g. optical and acoustical with a high volume level) can help to
270 prevent adverse outcomes in such situations.
271 Add list item d) before the conformance check:
272 d) If an anaesthetic workstation is equipped with a manual configuration for use with Oxygen 90+,
273 the configuration shall be protected from unintended use.

317 201.14
318 Add the following subclause:
319 201.14.102 Cybersecurity capabilities of an anaesthetic workstation
320 a) An anaesthetic workstation should contribute to the safe operation related to cybersecurity.
321 b) Risk control measures as specified in IEC/TR 60601-4-5:2021, Clauses 4 to 7, should be implemented, as
322 appropriate, with the following additions to IEC/TR 60601-4-5:2021, 4.6.3.
323 1) Essential function: Data interfaces to an IT-network connection may be subject to attack (via
324 physical or logical disconnection). After disconnection of all data interfaces, if it is necessary to
325 restart the anaesthetic workstation, all clinical functions except the affected remote functionality
326 should be in place and operate as intended.
327 2) Firecall functions: As an anaesthetic workstation is used with healthcare professional operator
328 supervision, the user interface need not require authentication for operators and thus need not
329 require firecall functions. If authentication for operators to operator accessible settings is in place
330 also for the user interface, a firecall function should be able to overrule that operator
331 authentication combined with a log entry protected against modifications by the operator (i.e.
332 responsible organization log). IT-network interfaces including those for remote access typically
333 require authentication but should not include firecall functions.
334 3) Target security level SL-T: For user interfaces and for remote setting of clinical functions, the
335 expected security level of SL-T, as specified in IEC/TR 60601-4-5:2021, is 1 or better.
336 Authentication is not required for operators of the user interface of the anaesthetic workstation.
337 Authentication is required for remote access through a data interface. The expected security
338 level of SL-T, as specified in IEC/TR 60601-4-5:2021, is 2 or better for secure updates or
339 restorage of software, remotely or locally.
340 201.101.4.2.1

345 Replace the text of list item c) by the following:
346 c) The accuracy of the graduations of any flowmeter or flow rate adjustment control used in the
347 anaesthetic gas delivery system shall be:
ISO 80601-2-13:2022/DAM 1.2:2025(en)
348 — within ±10 % of the indicated value for flow rates between 10 % and 100 % of full scale with pure
349 oxygen

353 201.101.7
354 Replace the text of the first paragraph by the following:
355 At any flow rate and supply pressure given in normal use, the oxygen concentration shall be:
356 — within ±5 % volume fraction of the set or indicated value for an anaesthetic workstation which is
357 designed or configured for use with pure oxygen;
358 — within ± (5 % volume fraction or 10 % of the set or indicated value, the higher value applies), of the
359 set or indicated value with Oxygen 90+ for an anaesthetic workstation which has a configuration for
360 use with Oxygen 90+;
361 — within +5 % volume fraction, -(5 % volume fraction or 15 % of the set or indicated value, the higher
362 value applies) of the set or indicated value with Oxygen 90+ for an anaesthetic workstation which has
363 no configuration for use with Oxygen 90+.
