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 Device Recall Authority—21 CFR Part 810 (OMB Control Number 0910–0432)—Extension This collection of information implements section 518(e) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act) (21 U.S.C. 360h) and part 810 (21 CFR part 810) for the medical device recall authority provisions. Section 518(e) of the act provides FDA with the authority to issue an order requiring an appropriate person, including manufacturers, importers, distributors, and retailers of a device, if FDA finds that there is reasonable probability that the device intended for human use would cause serious adverse health consequences or death to: (1) Immediately cease distribution of such device, (2) immediately notify health professionals and device-user facilities of the order, and (3) instruct such professionals and facilities to cease use of such device. Further, the provisions under section 518 (e) of the act sets out a three- step procedure for issuance of a mandatory device recall order which are: (1) If there is a reasonable probability that a device intended for human use would cause serious, adverse health consequences or death, FDA may issue a cease distribution and notification order requiring the appropriate person to immediately: (a) Cease distribution of the device, (b) notify health professionals and device user facilities of the order, and (c) instruct those professionals and facilities to cease use of the device, (2) FDA will provide the person named in the cease distribution and notification order with the opportunity for an informal hearing on whether the order should be modified, vacated, or amended to require a mandatory recall of the device and, (3) after providing the opportunity for an informal hearing, FDA may issue a mandatory recall order if the agency determines that such an order is necessary. The information collected under the recall authority provisions will be used by FDA to: (1) Ensure that all devices entering the market are safe and effective, (2) accurately and immediately detect serious problems with medical devices, and (3) remove dangerous and defective devices from the market. In the Federal Register of December 19, 2008 (73 FR 77719), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the information collection provisions. No comments were received.

Medical Device Recall Authority--21 CFR Part 810 (OMB Control Number 
0910-0432)--Extension

    This collection of information implements section 518(e) of the 
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act) (21 U.S.C. 360h) and 
part 810 (21 CFR part 810) for the medical device recall authority 
provisions. Section 518(e) of the act provides FDA with the authority 
to issue an order requiring an appropriate person, including 
manufacturers, importers, distributors, and retailers of a device, if 
FDA finds that there is reasonable probability that the device intended 
for human use would cause serious adverse health consequences or death 
to: (1) Immediately cease distribution of such device, (2) immediately 
notify health professionals and device-user facilities of the order, 
and (3) instruct such professionals and facilities to cease use of such 
device.
    Further, the provisions under section 518 (e) of the act sets out a 
three- step procedure for issuance of a mandatory device recall order 
which are: (1) If there is a reasonable probability that a device 
intended for human use would cause serious, adverse health consequences 
or death, FDA may issue a cease distribution and notification order 
requiring the appropriate person to immediately: (a) Cease distribution 
of the device, (b) notify health professionals and device user 
facilities of the order, and (c) instruct those professionals and 
facilities to cease use of the device, (2) FDA will provide the person 
named in the cease distribution and notification order with the 
opportunity for an informal hearing on whether the order should be 
modified, vacated, or amended to require a mandatory recall of the 
device and, (3) after providing the opportunity for an informal 
hearing, FDA may issue a mandatory recall order if the agency 
determines that such an order is necessary.
    The information collected under the recall authority provisions 
will be used by FDA to: (1) Ensure that all devices entering the market 
are safe and effective, (2) accurately and immediately detect serious 
problems with medical devices, and (3) remove dangerous and defective 
devices from the market.
    In the Federal Register of December 19, 2008 (73 FR 77719), FDA 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the information 
collection provisions. No comments were received.

Explanation for Burden Estimates:
    The burden estimates for tables I and II of this document are based 
on FDA's experience with voluntary recalls under part 810 of the 
regulations. FDA expects no more than two mandatory recalls per year, 
as most recalls are done voluntarily. Since the last time this 
collection of information was submitted to OMB for renewal/approval, 
there have been no mandatory recalls.
