This International Standard applies to disposable and reusable, as well as woven and non-woven materials used as surgical drapes and other patient protective covers which claim to be laser resistant. The purpose of this standard is to provide a standardized method for testing and classifying surgical drapes and other patient protective covers with respect to laser-induced hazards. It also covers the issue of laser-induced secondary ignition. An appropriate classification system is given. It is not the purpose of this standard to serve as a general fire safety specification, and as such, this standard does not cover other sources of ignition. All materials reflect portions of the beam and it is necessary for the user to decide whether specular reflectance may be a hazard. This measurement, however, is not covered in this standard. The results of this part of ISO 11810 are not to be applied to other wavelengths and temporal formats. The 20 W CO2 laser (continuous wave) has been selected as the laser to be used for ISO 11810. Users of products tested by this method are cautioned that the laser resistance of a surgical drape and/or patient protective cover will be wavelength sensitive and that a surgical drape and/or patient protective cover are better tested at the wavelength for which it is intended to be used. If tested using other wavelengths, the power settings and modes of delivery need to be explicitly stated.
