► Additional devices which are connected to electrical medical
devices must provide evidence of compliance with the relevant IEC
or ISO standards (e.g. IEC 60950 for data-processing devices).
Furthermore, all configurations must comply with the requirements
of standards for medical systems (see IEC 60601-1-1 or Section 16
of edition 3.1 of IEC 60601-1 respectively). Anyone connecting
additional devices to electrical medical devices is considered a
system configurer and is therefore responsible for ensuring that the
system complies with the requirements of standards for systems.
This also applies to additional devices recommended by seca. Your
attention is drawn to the fact that local laws take precedence over
