The United States is one of the ISO members that took an active role in the development of this standard, which was developed by ISO Technical Committee 198, Sterilization of health care products, to correct errors; clarify language; and replace terms used in Table 1 and Table 2 of ISO 13408-1:2008. U.S. participation in this ISO TC is organized through the AAMI Sterilization Standards Committee which serves as the U.S. Technical Advisory Group for ISO/TC 198. AAMI ST Working Group 09, Aseptic processing, serves as the U.S. sub-TAG for the relevant ISO working group and supports the adoption of this amendment. The U.S. adoption of ANSI/AAMI/ISO 13408-1 Amd 1 was approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) on 27 March 2013. AAMI and ANSI procedures require that standards be reviewed and, if necessary, revised every five years to reflect technological advances that may have occurred since publication. AAMI (and ANSI) have adopted other ISO standards. See the Glossary of Equivalent Standards for a list of ISO standards adopted by AAMI which gives the corresponding U.S. designation and the level of equivalency with the ISO standard. The concepts incorporated in this standard should not be considered inflexible or static. This standard, like any other, must be reviewed and updated periodically to assimilate progressive technological developments. To remain relevant, it must be modified as technological advances are made and as new data come to light. Suggestions for improving this standard are invited. Comments and suggested revisions should be sent to Standards Department, AAMI, 4301 N. Fairfax Dr., Ste. 301, Arlington, VA 22203-1633. NOTE—Beginning with the foreword on page vii, this American National Standard is identical to ISO 13408-1:2008 Amd. 1. 2013 Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation ANSI/AAMI/ISO 13408-1:2008/(R)2011/A1:2013 vii Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Amendment 1 to ISO 13408-1:2008 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 198, Sterilization of health care products. viii 2013 Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation ANSI/AAMI/ISO 13408-1:2008/(R)2011/A1:2013 2013 Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation ANSI/AAMI/ISO 13408-1:2008/(R)2011/A1:2013 1 American National Standard ANSI/AAMI/ISO 13408-1:2008/(R)2011/A1:2013 Aseptic processing of health care products — Part 1: General requirements Page xi, Introduction In the second paragraph, replace the second sentence with the following: ISO/TC 198 has prepared standards for terminal sterilization of health care products by irradiation (ISO 11137 series), by moist heat (ISO 17665 series), by dry heat (ISO 20857), by ethylene oxide (ISO 11135) and by liquid chemical sterilants (ISO 14160).
