4 Requirements
4.1 Materials used in parts in contact with patients
4.1.1 Chemical composition requirements
For materials used in parts that are in contact with patients, the manufacturer shall
indicate this clearly in any possible form. Among them, the metal material shall be
marked with the designation and (or) code and the chemical composition requirements
of the material. The chemical composition of the metal material shall be verified
through tests.
4.1.2 Biocompatibility
Materials in contact with patients shall undergo biosafety evaluation in accordance with
the principles and requirements of GB/T 16886.1 to prove good biocompatibility.
Biological evaluation may consider biological test results, and the selection of test items
shall be carried out in accordance with the guidelines of GB/T 16886.1. All tests are
preferably based on the relevant standards of GB/T 16886.
For materials that have been previously proven to be suitable, if it can be proven that
the subsequent manufacturing process is not sufficient to cause biosafety hazards,
biological tests may be exempted.
NOTE 1: If the material of a device under design has a demonstrable history of use in specific
applications, or if information about the material and (or) the device is available from other sources,
the material can be considered to have been previously proven suitable.
NOTE 2: If the metal material is a medical metal material suitable for the application range in the
national or industry standards, biological tests may be exempted.
4.1.3 Leachables of polymer materials used in parts in contact with patients
4.1.3.1 Appearance (turbidity, color): colorless and transparent, no foreign matter can
be seen visually.
4.1.3.2 pH: when compared with the blank control solution of the same batch, the pH
difference shall be less than 2.0.
4.1.3.3 Total content of soluble heavy metals: the total content of soluble heavy metals
in the dissolution solution shall not exceed 5.0 μg/mL.
4.1.3.4 Potassium permanganate reducing substance: the consumption difference with
the same volume of blank control solution from the same batch shall be less than 2.0
mL.
4.1.3.5 Evaporation residue: the total amount of dry residue in the dissolution solution
shall be less than 2.0 mg.
4.1.4 Hardness
The forceps head shall meet the hardness requirements specified by the manufacturer.
4.1.5 Consistency of surface and interior in material
The manufacturer claims that the surface of the device part made of metal materials
shall be consistent with the interior in material. If it is indeed necessary to coat the
surface of the device, the manufacturer shall provide the corresponding coating
requirements and test methods.
4.2 Appearance
4.2.1 Under the field of view of the endoscope, the visible head end of the surgical
instrument shall be processed to eliminate possible directional reflections.
4.2.2 Except for special purposes, there shall be no burrs or other defects that may cause
injury on the outer surface.
4.3 Dimensions
4.3.1 Maximum insertion portion width
The manufacturer shall give the nominal value of the maximum insertion portion width
in the instructions.
The actual measured value must not be greater than the nominal value.
4.3.2 Working length
The manufacturer shall give the nominal value of the working length in the instructions
and provide a diagram to clearly indicate it.
The tolerance of nominal value of the working length: ±3 %.
4.3.3 Maximum opening range of forceps head
The manufacturer shall give the nominal value of the maximum opening range of
forceps head in the instructions and provide a diagram to clearly indicate it.
The tolerance of nominal value of the opening range of forceps head: ±20 %.
4.4 Usage performance
4.4.1 Opening and closing performance
requirements of Class b; the remaining materials are sterilized once in accordance with
the most unfavorable sterilization method for the device specified by the manufacturer
in the instructions, and there shall be no corrosion.
