This choreographies document describes ordering between Buyer and Seller where the Buyer wants to reach an agreement with the Seller about an order. It describes a series of activities that govern communication between the parties and refers to the specifications where information and rules that apply are described.
The various possible behaviours of the Seller and Buyer subsequent to the first order communication are conveyed by variants of this choreography that are described in 5.2.
Previous activities (e.g. cataloguing) and subsequent activities (e.g. invoicing) are outside the scope of this document. If performed electronically, their implementation is covered by other choreographies.
The identifier of this choreographies document is EN 17016-1:2022.
How to claim conformance to this choreography is described in 5.2.3.

The key aspects covered by this choreography specification:
• Processes for submitting catalogues from the selling to the buying side;
• Processes for submitting catalogue-related data as part of tendering processes.
Transaction used in the specified choreographies are out of scope. These transactions are specified in the related transaction specification on “Catalogue Transactions”.

ISO/TS 14265:2011 defines a set of high-level categories of purposes for which personal health information can be processed. This is in order to provide a framework for classifying the various specific purposes that can be defined and used by individual policy domains (e.g. healthcare organizations, regional health authorities, jurisdictions, countries) as an aid to the consistent management of information in the delivery of health care services and for the communication of electronic health records across organizational and jurisdictional boundaries.
The scope of application of ISO/TS 14265:2011 is limited to Personal Health Information as defined in ISO 27799, information about an identifiable person that relates to the physical or mental health of the individual, or to provision of health services to the individual.

This document gives general guidance for the sampling and gas chromatographic analysis of compressor oil in biomethane or compressed natural gas (CNG). The compressor oil mass fraction is determined by sampling on coalescing filters under defined operational conditions (the two first cubic meters of gas referring to standard conditions, delivered at a refuelling station). Compressor oils are lubricants used in mechanical devices where the purpose is to reduce the volume and increase the pressure of gases for use in a variety of applications. The method is solely applicable to compressed gas (p>18 MPa). The compressor oil content is expressed as mass fraction. The scope of this method is from 3 mg/kg – 30 mg/kg.

1.1 Inclusions
1.1.1 This document provides requirements for the development, validation and routine monitoring and control of a low temperature sterilization process for medical devices using vaporized hydrogen peroxide (VH2O2) as the sterilizing agent.
1.1.2 This document is intended to be applied by process developers, manufacturers of sterilization equipment, manufacturers of medical devices to be sterilized, organizations performing process validation of VH2O2 sterilization, and organizations responsible for sterilizing medical devices.
NOTE VH2O2 sterilizers can be used in both health care and industrial facilities, and this document acknowledges the similarities and differences between the two applications.
1.2 Exclusions
1.2.1 Processes that use other sterilizing agents, or hydrogen peroxide solution in combination with other chemicals as the sterilizing agent are not addressed in this document.
NOTE See ISO 14937 for guidance on validation of such processes.
1.2.2 This document does not specify requirements for development, validation and routine control of a process for inactivating the causative agents of spongiform encephalopathies, e.g. scrapie, bovine spongiform encephalopathy and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease. Specific recommendations have been produced in particular countries for the processing of materials potentially contaminated with these agents.
NOTE Some VH2O2 sterilizers have processes that demonstrate some level of inactivation of the causative agents of spongiform encephalopathies, e.g. scrapie, bovine spongiform encephalopathy and Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease. However, this inactivation is process, cycle, and test protocol specific, therefore this inactivation is outside the scope of this document, and no specific test methods are provided (see [14], [26], and [30] for more information).
1.2.3 This document does not specify requirements for designating a medical device as sterile.
NOTE See for example EN 556–1 or ANSI/AAMI ST67.
1.2.4 This document does not specify requirements for occupational safety associated with the design and operation of VH2O2 sterilization equipment.
NOTE For further information on safety, see examples in the Bibliography. National or regional regulations can also exist.
1.2.5 This document does not apply to the contents of contained product, i.e. product for which the environment within the sterilizer chamber during any stage of the sterilization process does not come into direct contact with the product, such as a solution in a sealed bottle.
1.2.6 This document does not cover hydrogen peroxide decontamination systems for use in rooms, enclosures or environmental spaces.
NOTE These decontamination systems operate at ambient conditions (e.g. temperature and pressure) and in general utilise an approach that is different to that of VH2O2 sterilization processes addressed in this document.
