CitiusTech delivered a poster presentation on the FDA compliance landscape (PMA, De Novo, 510k and Pre Cert) and its implication on AI in Healthcare, at the Mayo Clinic AI Symposium earlier this year.
In this presentation we want to outline the principles of medical device regulations and the 510(k) Premarket notification process for an efficient product approval with the FDA.
Slides presented at "Getting Your Medical Device FDA Approved" event, presented by Mentor Graphics Embedded Software, discussing how to address the enhanced scrutiny from government agencies that can introduce significant delays with the commercial release of software-related medical devices.
Getting through the FDA review as quickly as possible requires a clear understanding of the development standards, documentation and testing that is now expected for Medical devices. During this session we discussed how FDA hot buttons affect your medical device submission will be discussed, including:
-Requirements for software development as outlined in IEC 62304
-Content considerations for premarket submissions
-Human factors engineering as a platform for enhanced user safety
-Provisions for data security and protection against unauthorized wireless access
We reviewed the design control requirements and product development approach that can shorten your medical device's path to market with a focus on safety, human factors engineering and security.

Understanding FDA Requirements Medical Devicesmarchell
The medical device market is experiencing explosive growth. Currently valued at $90 billion, market growth will continue to accelerate as demographics and market drivers increase their pressure for new and innovative product offerings.
Moreover, a substantial investment of time and resources is required to properly evaluate a new product idea and estimate its potential for success. So when a company executive declines a seemingly good product idea, what is probably being declined is the expense of properly evaluating the idea, and after having paid these expenses, the prospect of embarking on an expensive commercialization effort that has a 90 percent chance of failing.
Medical device regulation is complex, in part because of the wide variety of items that are categorized as medical devices.
They may be simple tools used during medical examinations,
such as tongue depressors and thermometers, or high-tech life-saving devices that are implanted in the patient, like pacemakers and coronary stents.
The federal agency responsible for regulating medical devices is the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA)—an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
A manufacturer must obtain FDA’s prior approval or clearance before marketing many medical
devices in the United States.
FDA’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) is primarily responsible for medical device premarket review.
Another center, the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER), regulates devices associated with blood collection and processing procedures, cellular products and tissues.
Under the terms of the Medical Device Amendments of 1976
FDA classified all medical devices that were on the market at the time of enactment— the Pre amendment devices—into one of three classes.
Congress provided definitions for the three
classes—Class I, Class II, and Class III—based on the risk (low-, moderate-, and high-risk
respectively) to patients posed by the devices.
A PMA is “the most stringent type of device marketing application required by FDA” for new and/or high-risk devices.
PMA approval is based on the application contains sufficient valid scientific evidence to provide reasonable assurance that the device is safe and effective for its intended use(s)
PMAs generally require some clinical data prior to FDA making an approval decision.
All clinical evaluations of investigational devices (unless exempt) must have an investigational device exemption (IDE) before the clinical study is initiated.
An IDE allows an unapproved device (most commonly an invasive or life-sustaining device) to be used in a clinical study to collect the data required to support a PMA submission.
The IDE permits a device to be shipped lawfully for investigation of the device without requiring that the manufacturer comply with other requirements of the FFDCA, such as registration and listing.
A PMA must contain (among other things) the following information:
summaries of nonclinical and clinical data supporting the application and conclusions drawn from the studies;
a device description including significant physical and performance characteristics;
indications for use, description of the patient population and disease or condition that the device will diagnose, treat, prevent, cure, or mitigate;
a description of the foreign and U.S. marketing history, including if the device has been withdrawn from marketing for any reason related to the safety or effectiveness of the device;
proposed labeling; and
a description of the manufacturing process.
If a manufacturer wants to make a change to an approved PMA device.

Dear Mr. Watson:
The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) has completed its review of your premarket approval application (PMA) for the BioBanking Device.
BioBanking is intended to be for sub-dermal use as a radio frequency (RF) emitter in the prevention of identity theft and financial fraud. The device will interact with external scanners through radio frequency to identify the individual as well as financial account information. The device will also interact with external encoders for the purposes of addition or removal of financial account information. The device is solar powered and does not need internal batteries that would provide potential medical issues in the PMA review process.
The BioBanking insertion process can be administered by non-medical personnel trained in the implementation of the product. Financial institution personnel responsible for this administration will be trained and certified in application of the BioBanking device.
The sub-dermal BioBanking device is one element of the total transaction system. There is also a reader for the RF signals. Since the reader is a passive device it does not fall under provisions of the CDRH purview.
We are pleased to inform you that the PMA is approved. You may begin commercial distribution
of the device in accordance with the conditions of approval described below. You may continue
commercial distribution of the device upon receipt of this letter.
Page 2 – Mr. Watson
The sale and distribution of this device are governed by The Radiation Control provisions (originally enacted as the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968) located in Sections 531 through 542 of the Act. They apply to any "electronic product" which is defined as: any manufactured or assembled product (or component, part, or accessory of such product) which, when in operation,
i. contains or acts as part of an electronic circuit and
ii. emits (or in the absence of effective shielding or other controls would emit) electronic product radiation.
"Electronic product radiation" is defined as:
i. any ionizing or non-ionizing electromagnetic or particulate radiation, or
ii. any sonic, infrasonic, or ultrasonic wave, which is emitted from an electronic product as the result of the operation of an electronic circuit in such product.
The device is restricted under section 515(d)(l)(B)(ii) o.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy.

Premarket Approval (PMA)
application under section 515 of
the FD&C Act in order to obtain
marketing clearance.
De Novo Compliance
Less stringent compared to PMA
pathway, specially targeted for
devices which do not have a valid
predicate
Applies to Class I or Class II
devices for which general
controls or general and special
controls provide a reasonable
assuranceof safety and
effectiveness.
510(k) premarket notification process
Most common regulatory path to market
for medical devices
To market a Class I, II, and III device
intended for human use, for which a PMA
is not required, must submit a 510(k).)
Precertification (Pre-Cert)
Most stringent regulatory category for medical devices
The Software Precertification (Pre-Cert) Program is envisioned as a voluntary pathway that embodies a regulatory
model more tailored than the current regulatory paradigm to assess the safety and effectiveness of software
technologies without inhibiting patient access to these technologies. It aims to evaluate necessary information at
different points in the product’s lifecycle, to establish a reasonable assurance of safety and effectivenessfor the
product.
Premarket Approval (PMA) Overview and Types
A Premarket Approval (PMA) application is a scientific, regulatory documentation to FDA containing below
information in addition to administrative elements -
Technical Sections: The technical sections containing data and information should allow FDA to determine
whether to approve or disapprove the application
Non-clinical Laboratory Studies Section: Non-clinical laboratory studies section includes information on
microbiology, toxicology, immunology, biocompatibility, stress, wear, shelf life, and other laboratory or animal
tests. Non-clinical studies for safety evaluation must be conducted in compliance with 21CFR Part 58
Clinical Investigations Section: Clinical investigations section includes study protocols, safety and
effectiveness data, adverse reactions and complications, device failuresand replacements, patient information,
patient complaints, tabulations of data from all individual subjects, results of statistical analyses, and any other
information from the clinical investigations
Tradi�onal PMA Modular PMA
Streamline PMA Product Development Process (PDP)
21 CFR 814.20(b)
PMA filing criteria is a 2 step process:
Acceptancereview (15days) and filing
review (45 days)
GMP: FDA will inspect the site
Timeline: 180 days
Submit documents in different modular
stages
Need prior plan for modular PMA before
reaching to FDA
Timeline: 90 days for each module and 180
days after final module
Use for known technologies with known
disease processes
Already 2-3 approved PMA for similar
types must be present
GMP: Inspection is deferred if FDA has
completed inspection within past 2 years
Timeline: 180 days
PDP is a combination of IDE and PMA
(FD&C Act Section 515F)
Not very popular
Timeline: 120 days after completion of
clinical study
Types of PMA
De Novo Compliance Process
Step 1: Pre-Submission: Available for sponsors and manufacturers to obtain regulatory feedback
Topics that may be addressed using the Pre-Sub process include, but are not limited to -
o Specific preclinical performance testing required to support pre-market clearanceor approval application.
o The appropriate regulatory path for a novel device, such as the 510(k) route or a de novo application.
o The formal designation of a device clinical study as either "significant risk" (SR) or "non-significant risk" (NSR).
Request a Pre-Sub meeting with FDA -
o Cover Letter
o Thorough description of medical device
o Mechanism of action on the body
o Technical characteristics of device -AI/ML, etc.
o Planned testing strategy
o Queries to be asked to FDA
Step 2: Submission of De Novo
Submission of FDA 513(g) if no clear predicate can be established -
o “Request for Information” - outline the characteristicsof your device and include rationale on why it falls into a
specific class. In 60 days FDA will issue classification with suitable regulation number and product code.
New Devices De Novo -
o New devices will automatically fall into Class III. However, not all devices are high risk. Submit a De Novo request and
in 120 days FDA will determine Class I or II for device and may issue an entirely new product code and regulation
number.
Step 3: Granting of De Novo
The specific device and device type is classified as Class I or Class II. The device may then be marketed immediately and
served as a predicate device.
FDA 510k Decision Making Process for Approval
510(k) Compliance Overview and Types
510(k) compliance is necessary to market a Class I, ClassII, and III device(s) in US -
o Intended for human use
o Premarket Approval(PMA) is not required
A 510(k) is a premarket submission made to FDA to demonstrate that the device to be marketed is at least as safe and
effective (substantially equivalent) to a legally marketed device (21 CFR 807.92(a)(3)) that is not subject to PMA
Submitters must compare their device to one or more similar legally marketed devices and make, support their
substantial equivalenceclaims
Workflow: Types of 510k Compliances
Tradi�onal 510k Abbreviated 510k
21 CFR 807
Used for any original 510k or for
a modification to a previously
created device under 510k
Submitted when a guidance document
exists
A special control has been established
or FDA has recognized a relevant
consensus standard
Special 510k
Maybe submitted for a modification to a device which does not
affect intended use or does not alter fundamental scientific
technology
Device modification is mostly around design control
No data is evaluated by FDA (Declaration of Conformity –
Conformance Assurance
Pre-Cert – How it’s different from Traditional Pathway
Pre-Certification Process
Which Compliance to Use
PMA De Novo 510k
When To assure the safety and
effectiveness of Class III
devices.
Novel devices of low to
moderate risk (Class I and II).
Class I, II, and III device intendedfor
human use, for which a Premarket
Approval (PMA) is not required.
Device Class 3 Class 1 and 2 Class 1, 2 and 3
Why Due to the level of risk
associated with Class III
devices, FDA has
determinedthat general
and special controls
alone are insufficientto
assure the safety and
effectiveness of Class III
devices.
Therefore, these devices
requirea premarket
approval (PMA)
application under section
515 of the FD&C Act in
order to obtain
marketing clearance.
Do not have a valid
predicate device.
To demonstrate that the device to
be marketed is at least as safe and
effective (substantiallyequivalent)to
a legally marketed device that is not
subject to PMA.
Submitters must compare their
device to one or more similar legally
marketed devices (predicates) and
make and support their substantial
equivalencyclaims.
Risk Factor The manufacturer must
prove that the risk factor
presentedwith this
device is a medium risk.
The manufacturer must
prove that the risk factor
presentedwith this device is
a medium risk.
The manufacturer must merely
prove that the risk presented by the
device is no greater than its
substantial equivalence device.
