Assistive products for personal hygiene that support users. Requirements and test methods
Published date

01-31-2016

This International Standard specifies requirements and associated test methods for assistive products for personal hygiene (APPHs) that support users and which are intended by the manufacturer to alleviate or compensate for disability. The work environment and safety aspects for assistants are also included. It specifies safety and performance requirements that apply during normal use and foreseeable misuse and failure. It also specifies methods of measurement of the forces necessary to operate controls and specifies limits on the forces needed for some operations. This International Standard specifies requirements and test methods for assistive products within the following divisions of ISO9999:2011: 091203 Commode chairs; NOTE This covers mobile and static products. 091206 Toilets with built in raising and height adjustable mechanism; NOTE This excludes toilets with built-in douche and air dryers. 091209 Toilet seats; 091212 Raised toilet seats mounted on frame; 091215 Toilet seats inserts; 091218 Raised toilet seats fixed to toilet; 091221 Toilet seats with built-in raising mechanism to help standing up and sitting down; 091224 Toilet arm supports and toilet back supports mounted on toilet; 091225 Toilet arm supports and toilet back supports, free standing; 091236 Douches and air dryers for attachment to a toilet; 093303 Bath/shower chairs (with and without wheels), bath boards, stools, back supports
and seats; 093312 Bathing stretchers, shower tables and diaper-changing tables; 181506 Height adjustable plinths and brackets; NOTE Refers to height adjustable plinths and brackets when used as an assistive product for personal hygiene (APPH). Height adjustable mechanisms for other items such as basins may be included. 181803 Handrails and support rails; 181806 Fixed grab bars and handgrips; 181810 Removable grab rails and handgrips; NOTE This excludes removable grab rails and handgrips which are static as defined in 3.27. 181811 Hinged rails and arm supports; This International Standard does not encompass requirements regarding: safe mounting in building structures; requirements regarding fixed building installations e.g. water and electricity; bathtub hoists that are covered by ISO10535; 093321 Bathtubs of ISO9999:2011; stability and friction issues in relation to slippery surfaces due to soap; products that have been customised or custom-made for an individual user.
