What is FDA 21 CFR PART 510(k) & Who Needs To Comply?

What is FDA 21 CFR PART 510(k)?

Each person who wants to market in the U.S., a Class I, II, and III device intended for human use, for which a Premarket Approval application (PMA) is not required, must submit a 510(k) to FDA unless the device is exempt from 510(k) requirements of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) and does not exceed the limitations of exemptions in .9 of the device classification regulation chapters (e.g., 21 CFR 862.9, 21 CFR 864.9).

Who is Required to Submit a 510(k)?

The following four categories of medical device manufacturers must submit a 510(k) to the FDA:

(1) Domestic manufacturers introducing a device to the U.S. market
(2) Specification developers introducing a device to the U.S. market
(3) Repackers or relabelers who make labeling changes or whose operations significantly affect the device
(4) Foreign manufacturers/exporters or U.S. representatives of foreign manufacturers/exporters introducing a device to the U.S. market

Who is NOT Required to Submit a 510(k)?

"Preamendment Devices" or "Grandfathered" devices legally marketed in the U.S. by a firm before May 28, 1976 do not require a 510(k) if they have not been:
* significantly changed or modified since then; and
* for which a regulation requiring a PMA application has not been published by FDA
The device must have the same intended use as that marketed before May 28, 1976. If the device is labeled for a different intended use, then the device is considered a new device and a 510(k) must be submitted to FDA for marketing clearance.
