My error - 5 m should have read 5 feet = 1.5 meters. 
 
Best Regards

        I suspect a bit of confusion over units of measurement. For all 
practical purposes, 1.5 metres = 5 feet.

        The PATIENT ENVIRONMENT is defined as within 1.5m of the patient 
(60601-1). The idea is that patients cannot reach 1.5m without moving their 
body. I don’t know where 5m comes from.

        Hello Peter ,

         

        Could you please let me know where this 5 meters comes from? Many 
different types of personal computers are used in the medical industry that 
will come in close proximity to a patient that are not under the control of 
medical practitioners, including many hand held IT devices . 

         

        Best regards,

        Ron Wellman

Derek,

 

As long as it is 5 meters from the patient, it can be considered ITE

        Good day all,
        
        I have been asked by a client to look into what requirements exist for 
a device that will be installed on the wall of a Doctors office in Canada .
        
        It has no patient contact, and essentially is a PC for recalling and 
displaying patient information.
        
        I can find loads of requirements for devices that attach to patients, 
or attach indirectly for patients, but nothing thats benign like this.
        
        Can anyone suggest what requirements exist please?
        
        Thanks,
        
        Derek Walton
