BS EN 1060-1:1996 is a European Standard titled "Non-invasive sphygmomanometers - Part 1: General requirements." This standard is part of the BS EN 1060 series which specifies the requirements for non-invasive sphygmomanometers, commonly known as blood pressure monitors or blood pressure cuffs.
BS EN 1060-1:1996 specifically outlines the general requirements that non-invasive sphygmomanometers must meet in terms of accuracy, safety, performance, and design. It provides guidelines for manufacturers to ensure that their devices are suitable for accurate blood pressure measurement in a non-invasive manner, without the need for puncturing the skin.
The standard covers aspects such as the construction and materials of the device, its performance characteristics, labeling, and user instructions. It aims to ensure that non-invasive sphygmomanometers are reliable, consistent, and safe for use in medical and clinical settings.
It's worth noting that standards can be updated or revised over time, so it's a good idea to check for the latest version or any updates that may have been released since 1996 if you are looking for the most current information.
