There is IEC 60601-2-25 -A1, "Particular requirements for the safety of elecrocardiographs", that deals with EMC, and refers to IEC 60601-1-2 1st ed.(1993, now superseded) and is still valid, as far as I know. But now we have the new edition of IEC 60601-1-2, and its requirements are very different from 60601-2-25-A1 ones. The old edition is replaced by the new one, but what about those particular standards based on it? So I don't know which standard I have to apply. Can anybody out of there dispel my doubts?
