TC 62 Electrical equipment in medical practice Established in 1968 • Scope**: • To prepare international standards and other publications concerning electrical equipment, electrical systems and software used in healthcare and their effects on patients, operators, other persons and the environment. • NOTE: This scope includes items that are also within the scopes of other committees and will be addressed through cooperation. Attention will focus on safety and performance (e.g. radiation protection, data security, data integrity, data privacy and environmental aspects) and will contribute to regulatory frameworks. Healthcare includes medical practice as well as emergency medical services, homecare, and support of persons with disabilities in their daily lives (i.e. Ambient Assisted Living).” • ** as revised 2011-09-23 at the TC 62 meeting in Nuremberg and approved by the IEC Standards Management Board
