ISO 80369-3 Connectors for Enteral Applications

ISO 80369-3 Connectors for Enteral Applications

ISO 80369 Foreword
The ISO 80369 consists of multiple parts. Here is a list of the parts.

ISO 80369-3 Scope
ISO 80369-3 specifies the dimensions and requirements for the design and functional performance of these small-bore connectors intended to be used as connections in enteral applications of medical devices and accessories which are intended for use with a patient and on enteral medical devices, syringes and related accessories.ISO 80369-3 does not specify the dimensions and requirements for the medical devices or accessories that use these conectors. Those requirements are given in other International Standards related to the specific medical devices or accessories. Enteral medical devices include enteral feeding sets and patient interface devices and include access ports.

ISO 80369-3 does not specify requirements for connectors which are used for:
- Medical devices used for gastric suction only
- Medical devices used only orally
- Pressurizing and depressurizing inflation cuffs used to hold invasive medical devices in place (ISO 80369-7)
- Skin level gastrostomy medical devices
- Accessing eneral feeding reservoirs (ISO 18250)

ISO 80369-3 Reference Fittings
ISO 80369-3 specifies the Reference Fittings to be use to functionally testing these connectors. The test methodology is defined in ISO 80369-20. We also offer extra-specification ISO 80369-3 Gages to test the physical attributes of the ISO 80369-3 Connectors.
