ACTION:
Notice.

DATES: Fax written comments on the
collection of information by January 15,
2009.
ADDRESSES: To ensure that comments on
the information collection are received,
OMB recommends that written
comments be faxed to the Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs,
OMB, Attn: FDA Desk Officer, FAX:
202–395–6974, or e-mailed to

document.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Denver Presley, Jr., Office of Information
Management (HFA–710), Food and Drug
Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane,
Rockville, MD 20857, 301–796–3793.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA
has submitted the following proposed
collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance.
Medical Devices: Humanitarian Use
Devices—21 CFR Part 814 (OMB
Control Number 0910–0332)—Extension
This collection of information
implements the humanitarian use
device (HUD) provision of section
520(m) of the Federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (the act) (21 U.S.C.
360j(m)) and subpart H, part 814 (21
CFR part 814). Under section 520(m) of
the act, FDA is authorized to exempt a
HUD from the effectiveness
requirements of sections 514 and 515 of
the act (21 U.S.C. 360d and 360e)
provided that the device: (1) Is used to
treat or diagnose a disease or condition
that affects fewer than 4,000 individuals
in the United States; (2) would not be
E:\FR\FM\16DEN1.SGM
16DEN1
76358
Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 242 / Tuesday, December 16, 2008 / Notices
available to a person with such a disease
or condition unless an exemption is
granted, because there is no comparable
device other than another HUD
approved under this exemption that is
available to treat or diagnose the disease
or condition; and (3) will not expose
patients to an unreasonable or
significant risk of illness or injury with
the probable benefit to health from
using the device outweighing the risk of
injury or illness from its use. This takes
into account the probable risks and
benefits of currently available devices or
alternative forms of treatment.
The information collected will assist
FDA in making determinations on the
following: (1) Whether to grant HUD
designation of a medical device; (2)
exempt a HUD from the effectiveness
requirements under sections 514 and
515 of the act, provided that the device
meets requirements set forth under
section 520(m) of the act; and (3)
whether to grant marketing approval(s)
for the HUD. Failure to collect this
information would prevent FDA from
making a determination on the factors
listed previously in this document.
Further, the collected information
would also enable FDA to determine
whether the holder of a HUD is in
compliance with the HUD provisions
under section 520(m) of the act.
In the Federal Register of October 1,
2008 (73 FR 57108), FDA published a
60-day notice requesting public
comment on the information collection
provisions. No comments were received.
FDA estimates the burden of this
collection of information as follows:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has

Medical Devices: Humanitarian Use Devices--21 CFR Part 814 (OMB Control
