This Part 2 specifies requirements that are applicable to those ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICES intended to treat
bradyarrhythmias.
The tests that are specified in ISO 14708 are type tests, and are to be carried out on samples of a device to show
compliance.
This Part 2 is also applicable to some non-implantable parts and accessories of the devices (see Note 1).
The characteristics of the IMPLANTABLE PULSE GENERATOR or LEAD shall be determined by either the appropriate
method detailed in this Part 2 or by any other method demonstrated to have an accuracy equal to, or better than, the
method specified. In the case of dispute, the method detailed in this Part 2 shall apply.
Any features of an ACTIVE IMPLANTABLE MEDICAL DEVICE intended to treat tachyarrhythmias are covered by another ISO
document under development.
