This Standard specifies relevant terms and definitions, requirements, test methods, manufacture, sterilization, packaging and information supplied by manufacturer of the implants for osteosynthesis - metallic bone plates (hereafter referred to as "bone plate").
This Standard is applicable to the bone plates for union with the broken ends of fractured bone during orthopedic surgery. This Standard is not applicable to all the types of bone plates, and the user shall investigate the applicability of this Standard in combination with specific types and intended uses of the bone plates and specify corresponding product performance requirements.
Neither is this Standard applicable to craniofacial-maxillofacial bone plates, angle fixers and spine fixation plates etc., nor does it contain description and requirements of the bone plates in the special design.
