Life-Support Policy
General policy
American Power Conversion (APC) does not
recommend the use of any of its products in the
following situations:
• In life-support applications where failure or
malfunction of the APC product can be
reasonably expected to cause failure of the
life-support device or to affect significantly
its safety or effectiveness.
• In direct patient care.
APC will not knowingly sell its products for use in
such applications unless it receives in writing
assurances satisfactory to APC that (a) the risks of
injury or damage have been minimized, (b) the
customer assumes all such risks, and (c) the
liability of American Power Conversion is
adequately protected under the circumstances.
Examples of life-support devices
The term life-support device includes but is not
limited to neonatal oxygen analyzers, nerve
stimulators (whether used for anesthesia, pain
relief, or other purposes), autotransfusion devices,
blood pumps, defibrillators, arrhythmia detectors
and alarms, pacemakers, hemodialysis systems,
peritoneal dialysis systems, neonatal ventilator
incubators, ventilators (for adults and infants),
anesthesia ventilators, infusion pumps, and any
other devices designated as “critical” by the U.S.
FDA.
Hospital-grade wiring devices and leakage current
protection may be ordered as options on many
APC UPS systems. APC does not claim that units
with these modifications are certified or listed as
hospital-grade by APC or any other organization.
Therefore these units do not meet the requirements
for use in direct patient care.
