Objectives and uses of AAMI standards and
recommended practices
It is most important that the objectives and potential uses of an
AAMI product standard or recommended practice are clearly
understood. The objectives of AAMI's technical development
program derive from AAMI's overall mission: the advancement of
medical instrumentation. Essential to such advancement are (1) a
continued increase in the safe and effective application of current
technologies to patient care, and (2) the encouragement of new
technologies. It is AAMI's view that standards and recommended
practices can contribute significantly to the advancement of
medical instrumentation, provided that they are drafted with
attention to these objectives and provided that arbitrary and
restrictive uses are avoided.
A voluntary standard for a medical device recommends to the
manufacturer the information that should be provided with or on
the product, basic safety and performance criteria that should be
considered in qualifying the device for clinical use, and the
measurement techniques that can be used to determine whether the
device conforms with the safety and performance criteria and/or to
compare the performance characteristics of different products.
Some standards emphasize the information that should be provided
with the device, including performance characteristics, instructions
for use, warnings and precautions, and other data considered
important in ensuring the safe and effective use of the device in the
clinical environment. Recommending the disclosure of
performance characteristics often necessitates the development of
specialized test methods to facilitate uniformity in reporting;
reaching consensus on these tests can represent a considerable part
of committee work. When a drafting committee determines that
clinical concerns warrant the establishment of minimum safety and
performance criteria, referee tests must be provided and the reasons
for establishing the criteria must be documented in the rationale.
A recommended practice provides guidelines for the use, care,
and/or processing of a medical device or system. A recommended
practice does not address device performance per se, but rather
procedures and practices that will help ensure that a device is used
safely and effectively and that its performance will be maintained.
Although a device standard is primarily directed to the
manufacturer, it may also be of value to the potential purchaser or
user of the device as a frame of reference for device evaluation.
Similarly, even though a recommended practice is usually oriented
towards healthcare professionals, it may be useful to the
manufacturer in better understanding the environment in which a
medical device will be used. Also, some recommended practices,
while not addressing device performance criteria, provide
guidelines to industrial personnel on such subjects as sterilization
processing, methods of collecting data to establish safety and
efficacy, human engineering, and other processing or evaluation
techniques; such guidelines may be useful to health care
professionals in understanding industrial practices.
In determining whether an AAMI standard or recommended
practice is relevant to the specific needs of a potential user of the
document, several important concepts must be recognized:
All AAMI standards and recommended practices are voluntary
(unless, of course, they are adopted by government regulatory or
procurement authorities). The application of a standard or
recommended practice is solely within the discretion and
professional judgment of the user of the document.
Each AAMI standard or recommended practice reflects the
collective expertise of a committee of health care professionals and
industrial representatives, whose work has been reviewed
nationally (and sometimes internationally). As such, the consensus
recommendations embodied in a standard or recommended practice
are intended to respond to clinical needs and, ultimately, to help
ensure patient safety. A standard or recommended practice is
limited, however, in the sense that it responds generally to
perceived risks and conditions that may not always be relevant to
specific situations. A standard or recommended practice is an
important reference in responsible decision-making, but it should
never replace responsible decision-making.
Despite periodic review and revision (at least once every five
years), a standard or recommended practice is necessarily a static
document applied to a dynamic technology. Therefore, a standards
user must carefully review the reasons why the document was
initially developed and the specific rationale for each of its
provisions. This review will reveal whether the document remains
relevant to the specific needs of the user.
Particular care should be taken in applying a product standard
to existing devices and equipment, and in applying a recommended
practice to current procedures and practices. While observed or
potential risks with existing equipment typically form the basis for
the safety and performance criteria defined in a standard,
professional judgment must be used in applying these criteria to
existing equipment. No single source of information will serve to
identify a particular product as "unsafe". A voluntary standard can
be used as one resource, but the ultimate decision as to product
safety and efficacy must take into account the specifics of its
utilization and, of course, cost-benefit considerations. Similarly, a
recommended practice should be analyzed in the context of the
specific needs and resources of the individual institution or firm.
Again, the rationale accompanying each AAMI standard and
recommended practice is an excellent guide to the reasoning and
data underlying its provision.
In summary, a standard or recommended practice is truly
useful only when it is used in conjunction with other sources of
information and policy guidance and in the context of professional
experience and judgment.
INTERPRETATIONS OF AAMI STANDARDS
AND RECOMMENDED PRACTICES
Requests for interpretations of AAMI standards and recommended
practices must be made in writing, to the AAMI Vice President,
Standards Policy and Programs. An official interpretation must be
approved by letter ballot of the originating committee and
subsequently reviewed and approved by the AAMI Standards
Board. The interpretation will become official and representation of
the Association only upon exhaustion of any appeals and upon
publication of notice of interpretation in the "Standards Monitor"
section of the AAMI News. The Association for the Advancement
of Medical Instrumentation disclaims responsibility for any
characterization or explanation of a standard or recommended
practice which has not been developed and communicated in
accordance with this procedure and which is not published, by
appropriate notice, as an official interpretation in the AAMI News.
