IEC TS 81001-2-2:2025 5.8: Emergency access (EMRG)

What does 5.8 require?

The product lets an authorised clinical user reach protected health data and the software's essential performance in an emergency requiring immediate access when personal identification and authentication are unavailable (break-glass). Emergency access is detected, recorded and reported, ideally with the administrator or medical staff alerted at once as well as the audit entry; it requires and records self-attested user identification without authentication; the HDO can meet the need procedurally through a specific account or system function; the administrator can enable or disable the emergency functions according to the technical or procedural controls required; and the HDO defines the emergency conditions for use, for example in its business continuity plan.
