As we all know that the Novel Corona virus that is also as
COVID-19 has influenced many countries in the world and among them Italy and
the USA are the two countries that are affected by the Corona virus. Due to the
rapid spread of the Corona virus, the Government authorities had decided to stop
the work in their countries, hence initiated a complete lock down. Even in the
lock down, the infection is spreading rapidly due to the shortage of medical
masks and sanitizers.
As the Corona virus has become pandemic and many of the
people are infected by it and due to the shortage of medical equipment, the people are not getting the required
medical equipment. Hence the people are may getting infected rapidly. The
businesses are also collaborating with the makers of the existing medical
equipment makers and producing the masks and other medical equipment on a large
scale to provide it to the peoples.
A number of countries are taking an
initiative to fight and eradicate the corona virus.
Due to the emergency of COVID-19, the European nation is now
collaborating with other countries to produce more medical equipment such as
masks, sanitizers, Glover, and other required equipment.
How ISO certification
is implemented on the Medical Equipment's?
The European Committee for standardization with the other standardization has decided to make European and other international
benchmarks such as ISO 9001 and other certifications for the clinical equipment
and gadgets.
Which global
standards are included in this initiative?
There is a total of eleven benchmarks that had been created
by the European Committee for Standardization. From these, there are 3 key ISO
certifications are made accessible for the supplies of the medical equipment
such as face mask and gloves and the 3 ISO certification are:-
- ISO 10993-1:2009:- For evaluating the Biological
Devices.
- ISO 13688:2013:- Protective clothing such as
masks for general requirements.
- ISO 374-5:2017:- Gloves for protecting from
dangerous micro-organisms and chemicals.
The objective of the Initiative:-
The main objective of this initiative is to eradicate the Corona virus and supply a sufficient amount of medical equipment such as face
masks, Glover, and other clinical equipment to the required nations as many of
the nations are suffering from the COVID-19. This initiative will help Europe
and third nations to fight with the Corona virus by using the medical safety
equipment.
How access to the ISO
standards can help the manufacturers?
Organizations and businesses can implement measures and
empower their organizations. By involving in this initiative, the organization
is also helping the Government authorities to fight with the Corona virus.
As the pandemic disease spread rapidly and infects more
people, the number of medical equipment may get decreased and cause a shortage.
The shortage of medical equipment can cause a serious disaster and the number
of death may get an increase. So the production of the medical equipment is
important to fight with COVID-19. So we also follow the initiative and produce
sufficient medical equipment.
