This information collection requires a person who intends to market a medical device to submit premarket notification submission to FDA as least 90 days before proposing to begin the introduction, or delivery for introduction into interstate commerce, for commercial distribution of a device intended for human use. The information collected in a premarket notification allows for scientific and/or medical review of devices, subject to section 510(k) of the act, to confirm that the new devices are as safe and as effective as legally marketed predicate devices.
FDA has re-estimated this collection of information, FDA now estimates that it will receive about 3,800 original 510(k) submissions per year, along with 5,674 supplements/amendments per year. Additionally, the total estimated burden hours for the completion of a premarket notification have been therefore increased. The burden hours per response have increased because previously the FDA allowed a submitter to only comply with portions of these requirements they deemed necessary. However, FDA is now requiring all submitters to fully comply with the requirements set forth in both sections 807.92 and 807.93. Additionally FDA is now requiring FDA form 3654 to be completed in full, should it be submitted with a 510(k) submission.
