依據經濟暨社會委員會的意見
Whereas measures should be adopted in the context of the internal market; whereas the internal market is an area without internal frontier in which the free movement of goods, persons, services and capital is ensured;
鑒于內部市場之完成應采取一些措施；鑒于內部市場是一無內部疆界之區域，區域內之貨品，人員，服務及資金應可自由流通
Whereas the content and scope of the laws, regulations and adrninistrative provisions in force in the Member States with regard to the safety, health protection and performance characteristics of medical devices are different; whereas the certification and inspection procedures for such devices differ from one Member State to another; whereas such disparities constitute barriers to trade within the Community;
鑒于各會員國間現存有關醫療器材安全，對健康之保護及使用特性方面之法律，法規及行政命令之內容與范圍不盡相同；鑒于各會員國對此器材之驗證及檢驗程序也不相同；鑒于前述之分歧將阻礙共同體內的貿易活動；
Whereas the national provisions for the safety and health protetion of patients, users and, where appropriate, other persons, with regard to the use of medical devices should be harmonized in order to guarantee the free movement of such devices within the intemal markert;
鑒于醫療器械之使用對病患，使用者，甚至其他人有關安全及健康保護的相關國家規定應加以調和，以保證此類器材在內部市場自由流通；
Whereas the harmonized provisions must be distinguished from the measures adopted by the Member States to manage the funding of jpublic health and sickness insurance schemes relating directly or indirectly to such devices; whereas, therefore,the provisions do nto affect the alility of the Member States to implement the abovementioned measures provided Community law is complied with;
鑒于調和之規定必然與各會員國采取之部分措施有所不同，這些措施是為籌措公共健康與疾病保險計劃之基金，且直接或間接與醫療器材有關；鑒于共同體若與上述措施相符，則這些規定并不影響會員國落實上述措施的能力；
Whereas medical devices should provide patients, users and third parties with a high level of protection and attain the performance levels attributed to them by the manufacturer, whereas, therefore, the maintenace or improvement of the level of the level of protection attained in the Member States in one of the essential objectives of this Directive;
鑒于醫療器材應提供病患，使用者及第三者高度之保護，且應該達到廠商所要求之性能水準；鑒于維持或改進各會員國對病患等保護的程度乃本指令目的之一；
Whereas certain medical devices are intended to administer medicinal products within the meaning of Council Directive 65/65/EEC of 26 January 1965 on the approximation of provisions laid down by law, regulation or administrative action relating to proprietary medicinal products; whereas, in such cases, the placing on the market of the medical device as a general rule is governed by the present Directive and the placing on the market of the medicinal product is governed by Directive 65/65/EEC; whereas if, however, such a device is placed on the market in such a way that the device and the medicinal product form a single integral unit which is intended exlusively for use in the given combination and which is not reusable, that single-umit product shall be govemed by Directive 65/65/EEC; whereas a distinction must be drawn between the abvementioned devices and medical devices and medical devices incorporating, inter alia, substances which ,if used separately, may be considered to be a medicinal substance within the meaning of Directive 65/65/EEC; whereas in such cases, if the substances incorporated in the medical devices are liable to act upon the body with action ancillary to that of the device, the placing of the devices on the market is governed by this Directive; whereas, in this context, the safety, quality and usefulness of the substances must be verified by analogy with the appropriate methods specified in Council Directive 75/318/EEC of 20 May 1975 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to analytical, pharmaco- to xicological and clinical standards and protocols in respect of the testing of proprietary medicinal products;
鑒于部分醫療器材是符合1965年1月26日理事會第65/65/EEC號指令，與專賣醫藥產品有關之法律，法規或管理行為所訂之實施規定，鑒于醫療器材之上市基本上由本指令規范，但醫療產品之上市則受65/65/EEC號指令規范；鑒于若有某種器材須與其他醫療產品組成一完整的產品而上市銷售，使用，且無法二次使用時，則該組合產品應受65/65/EEC號指令規范；鑒于前述之醫療器材和包含醫療物質且該物質單獨使用時符合65/65/EEC號指令規定之醫療器材應加以區別；鑒于1975年5月20日75/318/EEC號理事會指令[制定各會員國在測試專利醫療產品方面有關分析藥物毒性和臨床之標準及調查書的法律調和]，醫療物質之安全，品質及效用在前述情況下則須依該指令明定之適當方法加以證實；
Whereas the essential requirements and other requirements set out in the Annexes to this Directive, including any reference to ‘minimizing’ or ‘reducing’ risk must be interprepreted and applied in such a way as to take account of technology and practice existing at the time of design and of technical and economical considerations compatible with a high level of protection of health and safety;
鑒于本指令附件所訂之基本要求及其他要求，包括[最低]或[降低]危險部分之應用，應考慮設計當時之科技及實施情形，并在符合健康和安全高度保護的原則下考慮技術及經濟的因素；
Whereas, in accordance with the principles set out in the Council resolution of 7 May 1985 concerning a new approach to technical harmonization and standardization, rules regarding the design and manufacture of medical devices must be confined to the provisions required to meet the essential requirements; whereas, because they are essential, such requirements should replace the corresponding national provisions;
鑒于為符合1985年5月7日理事會決議中有關技術調和與標準化新方針所訂定的原則，有關醫療器材之設計及執照應遵守相關條款以符合基本要求；鑒于這些要求屬基本要求，所以應取代對應之國家規定；
Whereas the essential requirements should be applied with discretion to take account of the technological level existing at the time of design and of technical and economic considerations compatible with a high level of protection of health and safety;
鑒于基本要求之落實應謹慎考慮設計當時之科技術水準，并在符合健康和安全高度保護的原則下考慮技術及經濟的因素；
Whereas Council Directive 90/385/EEC of 20 June 1990 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to active implantable medical devices is the first case of application of the new approach to the field of medical devices; whereas in the interest of uniform Community rules applicable to all medical devices, this Directive is based largely on the provisions of Directive 90/385/EEC; whereas for the same reasons Directive 90/385/EEC must be amended to insert the general provisions laid down in this Directive;
鑒于1990年6月20日通過的90/385/EEC號[各會員國有關主動植入式醫療器材法律調和]之理事指令是第一個應用在醫療器材方面的新方法指令；鑒于為使共同體規定適用于所有的醫療器材，本指令基本上是以90/385/EEC號指令的條款為依據；鑒于90/385/EEC號指令，因此也必須增加本指令所列之一般條款的部分；
Whereas the electromagnetic compatibility aspects form an integral part of the safety of medical devices; whereas the Directive should contain specific rules on this subject with regard to Council Directive 89/336/EEC of 3 May 1989 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to electromagnetic compatibility;
鑒于醫療器材的電磁相容性是整個產品安全的一部分；鑒于本指令因此須包括1989年5月3日89/336/EEC號[各會員國有關電磁相容性法律調和]之理事會指令中所制訂的特定規定；
Whereas this Directive should include requirements regarding the design and manufacture of devices emitting ionizing radiation; whereas this Directive does not affect the authorization required by Council Directive 80/836/Euratom of 15 July 1980 amending the Directive laying down the basic safety standards for the health protection of the general public and workers against the dangers of ionizing radiation, nor application of Council Directive 84/466/Euratom of 3 September 1984 laying down basic measures for the radiation protection of persons undergoing medical examination or treatment; whereas Council Directive 89/391/EEC of 12 June 1989 on the introduction of measures to encourage improvements in the safety and health of workers at work and the specific directive on the same subject should continue to apply;
鑒于本指令應包含釋放電離輻射醫療器材設計及制造的相關要求；鑒于本指令不影響1980年7月15日80/836/Euratom理事會指令所需要的授權，該指令目的在修訂為保護大眾工作人員健康，防止電離輻射危險而制訂基本安全標準之其他指令；本指令亦不影響1984年9月3日84/446/Euratom號[制訂保護人員在醫療檢查或治療中不受輻射影響之基本方法]理事會指令之適用；鑒于1989年6月12日89/391/EEC號理事會指令[鼓勵改善工作場所中工人之安全與健康]及其他相關主題之指令應持續適用；
Whereas, in order to demonstrate conformity with the essential requirements and to enable conformity to be verified, it is desirable to have harmonized European standards to protect against the risks associated with the design, manufacture and packaging of medical devices; whereas such harmonized European standards are drawn up by private-law bodies and should retain their status as non-mandatory texts; whereas, to this end ,the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) and the European Committee for Electrotechnical Standardization (Cenelec) are recognized as the competent bodies for the adoption of harmonized standards in accordance with the general guidelines on cooperation between the Commission and these two bodies signed on 13 November 1984;
鑒于為證明符合基本要求并使該符合性得以落實，有必要建立調和之歐洲標準，以避免醫療器材在設計，制造及包裝上所可能帶來的危險，鑒于調和之歐洲標準由私人立法機構制訂，而且應維持自愿性質；鑒于歐洲標準化委員會（CEN）及歐洲電標準化委員會（CENELEC）被認為是制訂調和標準有能力的團體（competent bodies）,而此標準符合1984年11月13日執委會與上述兩團體所簽訂的合作綱要為基礎的一般導原則；
Whereas, for the purpose of this Directive, a harmonized is a technical specification (European standard or harmonization document) adopted, on a mandate from the Commission, by either or both of these bodies in accordance with Council Directive 83/189/EEC of 28 March 1983 laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the field of technical standards and regulations, and pursuant to the abovementioned general guidelines; whereas with regard to possible amendment of the harmonized standards, the Commission should be assisted by the Committee set up pursuant to Directive 83/139/EEC; whereas the measures to be taken must be defined in line with procedure l, as laid down in Council Decision 87/373/EEC; whereas, for specific fields, what already exists in the form of European Pharmacopoeia monographs should be incorporate within the framework of this Directive ; whereas, therefore, several European Pharmacopoeia monographs may be considered equal to the abovementioned harmonized standards;
鑒于為達本指令目的，調和標準是前述機構接獲理事會命令后，依理事會1983年3月28日通過之83/189/EEC號指令[有關制訂技術標準及法規資訊提供的程序]而采納的技術規范歐洲標準或調和文件，符合前述一般綱要的規定；鑒于調和標準的修正有賴于83/189/EEC號指令建立的委員會的協助；鑒于應采取的措施須依照理事會87/378/EEC號指令程序一的規定；鑒于特殊領域中現存之歐洲藥典專題論文應納入本指令的架構中；因此數篇歐洲藥典專題論文將視其與前述調和標準有著同等的效力；
Whereas, in Decision 90/683/EEC of 13 December 1990 concerning the modules for the various phases of the conformity assessment procedures which are intended to be used in the technical harmonization directives, the Council has laid down harmonized conformity assessment procedures; whereas the application of these modules to medical devices anables the responsibility of manufacturers and notifiled bodies to be determined during conformity assessment procedures on the basis of the type of devices concerned; whereas the details added to these modules are justified by the nature of the verification required for medical devices;
鑒于理事會在1990年12月13日通過的90/683/EEC號[有關技術調和指令適用符合評鑒程序各階段模式]決定中制定調和的符合評鑒程序；鑒于這些模式于醫療器材之應用，可以依相關器材之型式決定制造商及公告機構在符合評鑒程序中應負的責任；鑒于醫療器材的證明有必要在模式里增加細節的規定；
Whereas it is necessary, essentially for the purpose of the conformity assessment procedures, to group the devices into four product classes; whereas the classification rules are based on the vulnerability of the human body taking account of the potential risks associated with the technical design and manufacture of the devices; whereas the conformity assessment procedures for Class Ⅰ devices can be carried out, as a general rule, under the sole responsibility of the manufacturers in view of the low level of vulnerability associated with these products; whereas, for Class Ⅱ a devices, the intervention of a notified body should be compulsory at the production stage; whereas, for devices falling within Classes Ⅱb and Ⅲ which constitute a high risk potential, inspection by a notified body is required with regard to the design and manufacture of the devices; whereas Class Ⅲ is set aside for the most critical devices for which explicit prior authorization with regard to conformity is required for them to be placed on the market;
鑒于為達到符合評鑒的目的有必要將醫療器材分類四類；鑒于分類是以考慮器材之技術設計及制造對易受傷的人體可能帶來的危險程度為原則；鑒于第Ⅰ類醫療器材對人體可能產生的傷害較輕微，其符合性評鑒程序大致可由制造商完全負責執行；鑒于對第Ⅱ（a ）類醫療器材而言，在生產階段時公告機構的介入應屬強制性質；鑒于屬于第Ⅱ（b）類及第Ⅲ類之醫療器材對人體具有較高的潛在危險，因此在器材的設計及制造階段必須有公告機構的檢驗；鑒于第Ⅲ類的器材皆為較特別的器材，其一致性需在上市之前獲得明確授權；
Whereas in cases where the conformity of the devices can be assessed under the responsibility of the manufacturer the competent authorities must be able, particularly in emergencies, to contact a person responsible for placing the device on the market and established in the Community, whether the manufacturer or another person established in the Community and designated by the manufacturer for the purpose;
鑒于器材之一致性如能由制造商負責評鑒，相關主管機關，特別是緊急狀況時，應能聯絡到一位設于共同體內負責將器材在市場上銷售之人員，該人員可以是制造商本人或其他設于共同體內經制造商授權的人員；
Whereas medical devices should, as a general rule, bear the CE mark to indicate their conformity with the provisions of this Directive to enable them to move freely within the Community and to be put into service in accordance with their intended purpose;
鑒于醫療器材應附加CE標志，表示其符合本指令的條款，而得以在共同體市場上自由流通并依其設計的目的使用；
Whereas, in the fight against AIDS and in the light of the conclusions of the Council adopted on 16 May 1989 regarding future activities on AIDS prevention and control at Community level, medical devices used for protection against the HIV virus must afford a high level of protection; whereas the design and manufacture of such products should be verified by a notified body;
鑒于為抵抗愛滋病，并顧及理事會于1989年5月16日采納有關共同體層次未來防止暨控制愛滋病相關活動的結論，用于防止HIV病毒感染的醫療器材應提供人體高度的保護；此類產品的設計及制造應由公告機構的證實；
Whereas the classification rules generally enable medical devices to be be appropriately classified; whereas, in view of the diverse nature of the devices and technological progress in this field, steps must be taken to include amongst the implementing powers conferred on the commission the decisions to be taken with regard to the proper classification or reclassification of the devices or, where appropriate, the adjustment of the classification rules themselves; whereas since these issues are closely connected with the protection of health, it is appropriate that these decisions should come under procedure Ⅲa, as provided for in Directive 87/373/EEC;
鑒于前述的分類原則大多可以適當地將醫療器材分類；鑒于醫療器材性質及相關領域技術進步之性質各異，因此必須采取一些措施以決定授予執委會的執行權力及有關器材的分類或再分類，或者于適當時調整分類的原則；鑒于上述的問題與人員健康的保護有著密切的關聯，因此這些決議應依照87/373/EEC號指令程序Ⅲa規定；
Whereas the confirmation of complicance with the essential requirements may mean that clinical investigations have to be carried out under the responsibility of the manufacturer, whereas, for the purpose of carrying out the clinical investigations, appropriate means have to be specified for the protection of public health and public order;
鑒于制造商有責任執行臨床調查以證明其醫療器材符合安全要求；因此為保證大眾健康及秩序應明訂執行臨床調查的適當方法；
Whereas the protection of health and the associated controls may be made more effective by means of medical device vigilance systems which are integrated at Community level;
鑒于健康的保護及相關的管制方法以在共同體層次上建立一個醫療裝置警戒系統為最有效；
Whereas this Directive covers the medical devices referred to in Council Directive 76/764/EEC of 27 July 1976 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States on clinical mercury-in-glass, maximum reading thermometers; whereas the abovementioned Directive must therefore be repealed; whereas for the same reasons Council Directive 84/539/EEC on 17 September 1984 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to electro-medical equipment used in human or veterinary medicine must be amended,
鑒于理事會于1976年7月27日通過76/764/EEC號[有關各會員國水銀玻璃最高溫度計法律調和]之指令中所提及的醫療器材亦受本指令規范；前述指令因此必須撤銷；基于同樣原因，理事會1984年9月17日通過之84/539/EEC號指令[有關各會員國人類或動物醫療使用之電動醫療器材法律調和]，
HAS ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE：
