Pre-Emergency Use Authorization (EUA)/EUA
Interactive Review Template
For Non-IVD Products
This interactive review template (the “template”) was designed to capture the
data/information needed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to support
authorization of a product for emergency use during the COVID-19 pandemic. This
template is intended to help companies provide the information to FDA, but alternative
approaches can be used. For more information about EUAs in general, refer to the FDA
Guidance document: Emergency Use Authorization of Medical Products and Related
Authorities. Once completed, please send this interactive review template to [email protected].
GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THIS TEMPLATE
•

Text highlighted in yellow [text] should be completed by the medical device product
developer (“sponsor”) as applicable to its specific product. Text in bold outlines the
FDA’s suggestions and clarifications for the sponsor to consider when completing the
information in each section.

•

This is a template for Pre-EUA/EUA submissions and not a guidance document. It
includes the information that FDA recommends be included in such submissions, as
outlined in the Emergency Use Authorization of Medical Products and Related
Authorities Guidance document. This template is subject to change as we learn more
about COVID-19 generally or improve the EUA review process.

•

Any trade secret or confidential commercial information provided within the template
and during the interactive review process will remain confidential.

•

Feedback provided by FDA during the interactive review of a pre-EUA/EUA
submission is subject to change as FDA gains experience during an emergency, and
as FDA learns more about the disease/condition this device addresses.

•

Please remember that if an EUA is issued for your product, the authorization would
only be for the use specified in the EUA and subject to the conditions in the EUA.
This device must not be introduced into interstate commerce for uses outside the
authorized use without obtaining marketing clearance, approval, IDE, or another
EUA by the FDA.

•

Clinical data may be required to support an EUA request. Please note that human
subject protection requirements (21 CFR Part 50) apply to clinical trials conducted to
support an EUA.

•

If authorized, the EUA means that the product would be authorized for use until the
declaration of public health emergency is terminated, or the EUA is revoked by the
FDA.

•

The EUA is not a pathway to permanent marketing of your product. For
information on premarket submissions, refer to FDA’s website on “How to Study and
Market Your Device” at https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advicecomprehensive-regulatory-assistance/how-study-and-market-your-device. For
guidance on modifications that trigger the requirement that a manufacturer submit a
new premarket notification (510(k)) to FDA, refer to FDA guidance Deciding When
to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device.
