All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<SafetyClassification>

public enum SafetyClassification
extends Enum<SafetyClassification>

SafetyClassification allows POC MEDICAL DEVICE manufacturers to limit their responsibility for the provided objects that allow informational use or use in clinical functions. It reflects the quality of the respective data from the risk management perspective of the data provider. It may take different values, which refer to the classes defined by [IEC62304]. Enumeration values prefixed with "Med" indicate the maximum acceptable "severity" the information is suitable to support. The severity levels refer to the levels given in IEC 62304. Example: a manufacturer flags an information as suitable to contribute to hazards with severity "No injury or damage to health is possible". Within his risk assessment the manufacturer may assume that erroneous information does not lead to harm and the associated risk is acceptable.

Enum Constant Detail

INFORMATIONAL

public static final SafetyClassification INFORMATIONAL

Inf = Informational. The descriptor and the related state information shall be used for information purposes only. They are not intended to be used in clinical functions.

MED_A

public static final SafetyClassification MED_A

MedA = Medical Class A. The descriptor and related state information are intended to be used in clinical functions. They are not intended to contribute to a HAZARDOUS SITUATION, which results in unacceptable risk if the descriptor and/or related state information is erroneous. The rate of occurrence of erroneous information is less than 1*10-4 per POC MEDICAL DEVICE per operating hour.

MED_B

public static final SafetyClassification MED_B

MedB = Medical Class B. The descriptor and related state information are intended to be used in clinical functions. The associated risk has been considered in the risk management process of the POC MEDICAL DEVICE and all related processes, e.g., software development, usability, verification. The rate of occurrence of erroneous information is less than 3*10-6 per POC MEDICAL DEVICE per operating hour. MedB REQUIRES a POC MEDICAL DEVICE manufacturer that the associated risk has been considered in the risk management process of the device and all related processes, e.g., software development, usability, and verification.

MED_C

public static final SafetyClassification MED_C

MedC = Medical Class C. The descriptor and related state information are intended to be used in clinical functions. They are intended to be used in a way that may result in death or serious injury if the descriptor and/or related state information is erroneous. The rate of occurrence of erroneous information is less than 3*10-7 per device per operating hour. MedB REQUIRES a POC MEDICAL DEVICE manufacturer that the associated risk has been considered in the risk management process of the device and all related processes, e.g., software development, usability, and verification.

Method Detail

values

public static SafetyClassification[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (SafetyClassification c : SafetyClassification.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static SafetyClassification valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null

value

public String value()

fromValue

public static SafetyClassification fromValue(String v)
