PRELIMINARY
• Patient Environment IEC60601-1 (IEC60601-1-1) and ANSI AAMI ES60601-1
Figure 1-1 Patient environment
Sub Clause 2.202 and figure 201 (IEC60601-1-1:2000)
Sub Clause 3.79 and figure A.9 (IEC60601-1:2005 and ANSI AAMI ES60601-1:2005)
Such an area is an environment in which medical diagnosis, monitoring or treatment is carried
out. It is very difficult to attach unique dimensions to the PATIENT ENVIROMENT.
In practice a distance of 2,5 m (8.2 ft.) above the floor on which the medical personnel stand and
a horizontal distance of 1,5 m (4.9 ft.) have justified themselves as indicative of the dimensions of
the Patient Environment.
The patient environment/vicinity will be depicted as a dashed line in this procedure. See example
below.
