Fda 510k clearance, submission and premarket approval

What Does a FDA 510( k) Clearance mean? Medical devices for human use within the United States must be submitted to the FDA to determine if the product is safe and effective. To do this, in utmost cases a company must compare their product to one formerly cleared by the FDA and give substantiation that their product is ? substantially equivalent ? to the preliminarily cleared( legally marketed) device. To be mainly original, the product must meet criteria for the same intended use, have the same technology or( slightly) different technology but produces similar end results, and be safe and effective.1 Once ?pre-market clearance ? is took from the FDA the device can be distributed commercially immediately. There are important differences between ? cleared ? and ? approved ?. When a medical device is cleared, this means it has experienced a 510( k) submission, which FDA has reviewed and handed clearance. For Class III medical devices to be legally marketed they must suffer a rigorous review and approval process orpre-market approval( PMA). In the United States, this frequently means submitting a 510( k). A 510( k) is a structured package of information about your device and its performance and safety that you submit to the Food and Drug Administration( FDA) for ? clearance ? before you can deal your device in the U.S. In order to receive clearance from the FDA, your 510( k) will need to demonstrate that your medical device is substantially equivalent to another legally marketed device (called a predicate device). What Exactly is Substantial Equivalence? Now that we know what a 510( k) is, let?s talk about the substantial equivalence standard. You ?ll recall from the intro that your 510( k) must show that the new( or modified) device is substantially equivalent to at least one other legally marketed device, called a predicate device. Substantial equivalence looks at the intended use and the technological characteristics of the two devices.
