SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register of June 26, 1996 (61
FR 33232), FDA issued a final rule implementing the provisions of the
Safe Medical Devices Act (the SMDA) regarding Humanitarian Use Devices
(HUD's). The final rule contained information collection requirements
subject to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (the PRA) (44 U.S.C.
3507). In compliance with section 3507 of the PRA, FDA has submitted
the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and
clearance:
Title: Medical Devices; Humanitarian Use Devices.
Description: This regulation implements the provision of the SMDA
regarding HUD's. A HUD is exempt from the effectiveness requirements of
sections 514 and 515 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21
U.S.C. 360d and 360e). In order to implement this exemption, FDA is
amending the premarket approval regulations in 21 CFR part 814 by
creating new subpart H. This final regulation prescribes the procedures
for submitting Humanitarian Device Exemption (HDE) applications,
amendments and supplements; procedures for obtaining an extension of
the exemption; and the criteria for FDA review and approval of HDE's.
This final rule will create a needed incentive for the development of
devices for use in the treatment or diagnosis of diseases or conditions
affecting a small number of individuals.
