New 510k for Modified 510k-Cleared or 510k-Exempt Devices: Best Practices​
​
FDA requires the filing of new 510(k) application for devices that are significantly modified from the previously 510k-cleared devices. Not only that, 510k-exempt devices may need 510k-clearance if modified in a way that exceeds the limitation of the exempt status. Many companies make assumptions regarding the testing needed, documentation requirements, and when a new 510k is needed for an “old” device leading to non-compliance, recalls, Warning Letters and other penalties. Often held misconceptions are that if the device is being improved from the previous version, it does not require a new 510k, or that 510-exempt devices stay exempt even after modifications. FDA requires companies to conduct comprehensive testing to determine the need for a new 510k. Recent FDA guidance documents describe the agency’s expectations and interpretations of the regulations for when a new 510(k) is needed for a modified device.
Areas Covered in the Session:
  • FDA’s current guidance for assessing new 510k for existing devices
  • 10 steps to evaluate new 510k needs for 510k-cleared and 510k-exempt devices
