To obtain FDA registration for medical devices, follow these steps:

  1. Determine Device Classification:

    • Identify if your device is Class I, II, or III to understand the regulatory pathway.1(3).jpg
  2. Pre-market Requirements:

    • Class I Devices: Generally exempt from pre-market approval but must comply with General Controls.
    • Class II Devices: Typically require a 510(k) pre-market notification to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed device.
    • Class III Devices: Require a PMA (Pre-Market Approval) with detailed clinical data to prove safety and effectiveness.
  3. Establish a Facility:

    • Ensure compliance with FDA regulations and, if applicable, appoint a U.S. agent if you are a foreign manufacturer.
  4. Submit Registration and Listing:

    • Register your establishment and list your device using FDA Form 2891 and 2892.
  5. Prepare and Submit the Application:

    • 510(k): Submit documentation showing substantial equivalence to an existing device.
    • PMA: Submit detailed evidence, including clinical trial results.
  6. FDA Review Process:

    • The FDA reviews your submission. For 510(k), it typically takes 90 days. PMA reviews can take longer.
  7. Receive FDA Decision:

    • Await the FDA's clearance or approval. A 510(k) will result in a clearance letter, and a PMA will result in an approval letter.
  8. Post-Market Compliance:

    • Follow FDA regulations, including labeling, reporting adverse events, and maintaining records.
