AGENCY:
Food and Drug Administration, HHS.
ACTION:
Final amendment; final order.
SUMMARY:
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA, Agency, or we) identified a list of class I devices and class II devices that are now exempt from premarket notification requirements, subject to certain limitations. FDA published the lists of final determinations in accordance with procedures established by the 21st Century Cures Act (Cures Act). Although each classification regulation for each such type of device shall be deemed amended to incorporate such exemption, we are publishing this final order to amend the codified language for each listed class I and class II device's classification regulation to reflect the final determinations. FDA's action decreases regulatory burden on the medical device industry and eliminates private costs and expenditures required to comply with certain Federal regulations.
DATES:
This order is effective December 30, 2019.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Cures Act (Pub. L. 114-255) was signed into law on December 13, 2016. Under the Cures Act, section 3054 amended section 510(l) and (m) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 360(l) and (m)). As amended, section 510(l)(2) of the FD&C Act requires FDA to identify through publication in the
Federal Register
, any type of class I device that the Agency determines no longer requires a report under section 510(k) of the FD&C Act to provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness.
( printed page 71795)
FDA shall publish this determination within 120 days of the date of enactment of the Cures Act and at least once every 5 years thereafter, as FDA determines appropriate. Further, section 510(l)(2) provides that upon the date of publication of the Agency's determination in the
Federal Register
, a 510(k) will no longer be required for these devices and the classification regulation applicable to each such type of device shall be deemed amended to incorporate such exemption.
As amended, section 510(m)(1)(A) of the FD&C Act provides that, within 90 days after enactment of the Cures Act and at least once every 5 years thereafter, FDA shall publish in the
Federal Register
a notice containing a list of each type of class II device that FDA determines no longer requires a report under section 510(k) of the FD&C Act to provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness. This notice shall provide at least a 60-day comment period. Within 210 days of enactment of the Cures Act, FDA shall publish in the
Federal Register
a list representing its final determination regarding exemption of devices that were contained in the proposed list published under 510(m)(1)(A) of the FD&C Act. Further, section 510(m)(3) of the FD&C Act provides that upon the date of publication of the final list in the
Federal Register
, a 510(k) will no longer be required for these devices and the classification regulation applicable to each such device shall be deemed amended to incorporate such exemption.
In the
Federal Register
of April 13, 2017 (82 FR 17841), in accordance with the amendments to 510(l)(2), FDA issued a notice of final determination to exempt a list of class I devices from premarket notification requirements under section 510(k) of the FD&C Act, subject to certain limitations. In the
Federal Register
of March 14, 2017 (82 FR 13609), in accordance with the amendments to 510(m)(1)(A), FDA issued a notice proposing to exempt a list of class II devices from premarket notification requirements under section 510(k) of the FD&C Act, subject to certain limitations. After a 60-day comment period, in the
Federal Register
of July 11, 2017 (82 FR 31976), FDA issued a notice of final determination to exempt class II devices provided in the proposed list. Through this action, FDA is now amending the codified language for each listed classification regulation to reflect final determinations for these class I and class II exemptions.[1]
Following publication of the notices, FDA determined that it is unnecessary to update three classification regulations (21 CFR 872.4565, 21 CFR 878.4014, and 21 CFR 880.6320) included in the class I notice, 82 FR 17841. Five product codes corresponding to these three classification regulations (EGI and EIB (21 CFR 872.4565), OVR (21 CFR 878.4014), KZF and PEQ (21 CFR 880.6320)) were identified for exemption in 82 FR 17841; however, the corresponding classification regulations were already class I, exempt from premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 (21 CFR part 807, subpart E) subject to the limitations in the corresponding “.9” regulations (
i.e.,21 CFR 872.9, 21 CFR 878.9 or 21 CFR 880.9); and, therefore, no revisions to the codified are necessary. Additionally, we determined that it is unnecessary to update 21 CFR 876.5820 included in the class II notice, 82 FR 13609. The product code within this classification regulation (FKI) was identified for exemption in 82 FR 13609. However, this device type is specifically identified within the class I paragraph of this classification regulation (21 CFR 876.5820(b)(2)) and already exempt from premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 subject to the limitations in 21 CFR 876.9. Therefore, no revisions to the codified are necessary.
We are also making a revision to correct a misidentified classification regulation in 82 FR 31976. The notice incorrectly listed the classification regulation 21 CFR 868.1400 “Carbon dioxide gas analyzer” as corresponding with product code LLK; however, the correct classification regulation associated with product code LLK is 21 CFR 880.5780 “Medical Support Stocking”. Therefore, 21 CFR 868.1400 remains unchanged, and 21 CFR 880.5780(a)(2) is revised to reflect the exemption.
We are revising the name of one classification regulation, currently entitled “Urological clamp for males”, in response to FDA's exemption in 82 FR 17841. Part 876.5160 is currently entitled “Urological clamp for males,” which was previously exempt from premarket notification procedures “. . . Except when intended for internal use or use on females . . .”. In 82 FR 17841, we exempted product code MNG, “External Urethral Occluder, Urinary Incontinence-Control, Female” and removed the current limitation language regarding “use on females.” Therefore, FDA is revising the name of the classification regulation to read “Urological clamp” to ensure clarity.
II. Criteria for Exemption
As amended by the Cures Act, section 510(l) now has two provisions, 510(l)(1) and (2). Under 510(1)(1), a class I device is exempt from the premarket notification requirements under section 510(k) of the FD&C Act, unless the device is intended for a use which is of substantial importance in preventing impairment of human health or it presents a potential unreasonable risk of illness or injury. Based on these criteria, FDA evaluated all class I devices to determine which device types should be exempt from premarket notification requirements.
For class II devices, there are a number of factors FDA may consider to determine whether a 510(k) is necessary to provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of a class II device. These factors are discussed in the January 21, 1998,
Federal Register
notice (63 FR 3142) and subsequently in the guidance we issued on February 19, 1998, entitled “Procedures for Class II Device Exemptions From Premarket Notification, Guidance for Industry and CDRH Staff ”.[2]
III. Limitations on Exemptions
Although FDA exempted the types of class I and class II devices from the premarket notification requirements under section 510(k) of the FD&C Act in accordance with the provisions under 510(l) and (m), an exemption from the requirement of premarket notification does not mean the device is exempt from any other statutory or regulatory requirements, unless such exemption is explicitly provided by order or regulation. FDA's determination that premarket notification is unnecessary to provide a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness is based, in part, on the assurance of safety and effectiveness that other regulatory controls, such as current good manufacturing practice requirements, provide.
In addition to being subject to the general limitations to the exemptions found in 21 CFR 862.9 to 892.9, FDA has also partially limited some exemptions from premarket notification requirements to specific devices within
( printed page 71796)
the listed device type. In such situations where a partial exemption limitation has been identified, FDA has determined that premarket notification is necessary to provide a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness for these devices.
IV. Analysis of Environmental Impact
The Agency has determined under 21 CFR 25.30(h) that this action is of a type that does not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. Therefore, neither an environmental assessment nor an environmental impact statement is required.
V. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
This final order refers to previously approved FDA collections of information. These collections of information are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3521). The collections of information in part 807, subpart E, regarding premarket notification submissions, have been approved under OMB control number 0910-0120; the collections of information in 21 CFR parts 801 and 809, regarding labeling, have been approved under OMB control number 0910-0485; and the collections of information in 21 CFR part 820, regarding quality system regulation, have been approved under OMB control number 0910-0073.
Therefore, under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and under authority delegated to the Commissioner of Food and Drugs, 21 CFR parts 862, 864, 866, 868, 870, 872, 874, 876, 878, 880, 882, 884, 886, 888, 890, and 892 are amended as follow:
