FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: FDA PRA Staff, Office of Operations, Food and Drug Administration, 1350 Piccard Dr., PI50–400B, Rockville, MD 20850, PRAStaff@fda.hhs.gov. 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. SUMMARY: Adverse Event Program for Medical Devices (Medical Product Safety Network)—(OMB Control Number 0910–0471)—Extension Among other things, section 519 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 360i) authorizes FDA to require (1) manufacturers to report medical devicerelated deaths, serious injuries, and malfunctions, and (2) user facilities to report device-related deaths directly to manufacturers and FDA and serious injuries to the manufacturer. Section 213 of the Food and Drug PO 00000 Frm 00032 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 20887 Administration Modernization Act of 1997 (Pub. L. 105–115) amended section 519(b) of the FD&C Act relating to mandatory reporting by user facilities of deaths, serious injuries, and serious illnesses associated with the use of medical devices. This amendment legislated the replacement of universal user facility reporting by a system that is limited to a ‘‘. . . subset of user facilities that constitutes a representative profile of user reports’’ for device-related deaths and serious injuries. This amendment is reflected in section 519(b)(5)(A) of the FD&C Act. This legislation provides FDA with the opportunity to design and implement a national surveillance network, composed of well-trained clinical facilities, to provide high-quality data on medical devices in clinical use. This system is called the Medical Product Safety Network (MedSun). FDA is seeking OMB clearance to continue to use electronic data collection to obtain the information on Form FDA 3500A (approved under OMB control number 0910–0291) related to medical devices and tissue products from the user facilities participating in MedSun, to obtain a demographic profile of the facilities, and for additional questions which will permit FDA to better understand the cause of reported adverse events. Participation in the program is voluntary and currently includes 250 facilities. In addition to collecting data on the electronic adverse event report form, MedSun collects additional information from participating sites about reported problems emerging from the MedSun hospitals. This data collection is also voluntary and is collected on the same Web site as the report information. The burden estimate is based on the number of facilities currently participating in MedSun (250). FDA estimates an average of 15 reports per site annually. This estimate is based on MedSun working to promote reporting in general from the sites, as well as promoting reporting from specific parts of the hospitals, such as the pediatric intensive care units, the electrophysiology laboratories, and the hospital laboratories. In the Federal Register of November 29, 2013 (78 FR 71620), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. No comments were received. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: E:\FR\FM\14APN1.SGM 14APN1 20888 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 71 / Monday, April 14, 2014 / Notices TABLE 1—ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN 1 Number of respondents Activity MedSun facilities participating in the electronic reporting of adverse events program (Form FDA 3670) ........................................................ 1 There [FR Doc. 2014–08212 Filed 4–11–14; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 4160–01–P DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Food and Drug Administration [Docket No. FDA–2014–N–0001] Circulatory System Devices Panel of the Medical Devices Advisory Committee; Notice of Meeting Food and Drug Administration, HHS. mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES ACTION: 250 15 Total annual responses 3,750 Average burden per response 0.75 (45 minutes) Total hours 2,813 are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.

Date and Time: The meeting will be held on May 6 and 7, 2014, from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Location: Hilton Washington DC North/Gaithersburg, Salons A, B, C, and D, 620 Perry Pkwy., Gaithersburg, MD 20877.

A notice in the Federal Register about last-minute modifications that impact a previously announced advisory committee meeting cannot always be published quickly enough to provide timely notice. Therefore, you should always check the Agency’s Web VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:39 Apr 11, 2014 Jkt 232001 site at https://www.fda.gov/ AdvisoryCommittees/default.htm and scroll down to the appropriate advisory committee meeting link, or call the advisory committee information line to learn about possible modifications before coming to the meeting. Agenda: On May 6, 2014, the committee will discuss, make recommendations, and vote on information related to the premarket approval application for the RESQCPR System sponsored by Advanced Circulatory Systems, Inc. The RESQCPR System is comprised of two devices: the RESQPOD 16.0 Impedance Threshold Device, and the RESQPUMP Active Compression Decompression CPR Device. These devices are used together during manual cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in an attempt to enhance venous return to the heart and blood flow to vital organs during CPR to ultimately increase survival and neurologic outcome in patients suffering from out of hospital cardiac arrest. Advanced Circulatory Systems, Inc. has proposed the following indications for use: the RESQCPR System is intended for use in the performance of CPR to increase survival with favorable neurologic function in adult patients with non-traumatic cardiac arrest. On May 7, 2014, during session I, the committee will discuss and make recommendations regarding the classification of membrane lung for long-term pulmonary support systems, one of the remaining preamendment Class III devices regulated under the 510(k) pathway. A membrane lung for long-term pulmonary support refers to the oxygenator component of an extracorporeal circuit used during longterm procedures, commonly referred to as extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). An ECMO procedure provides assisted extracorporeal circulation and physiologic gas exchange of a patient’s blood when an acute (reversible) condition prevents the patient’s own body from providing the physiologic gas exchange needed to sustain life. The circuit is comprised of multiple device types, including, but not limited to, an oxygenator, blood pump, cannulae, heat PO 00000 Frm 00033 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 exchanger, tubing, filters, monitors/ detectors, and other accessories; the circuit components and configuration (e.g., arteriovenous, veno-venous) may differ based on the needs of the individual patient or the condition being treated. ECMO is currently used for patients with acute reversible respiratory or cardiac failure, unresponsive to optimal ventilation and/or pharmacologic management. On January 8, 2013 the FDA issued a proposed order which, if made final, would make the class III ECMO devices class II subject to premarket notification (510(k)) and special controls. FDA discussed the regulatory history of ECMO devices as part of the proposed order. On September 12, 2013, the classification of ECMO was discussed at a meeting of the Circulatory System Devices Panel. The Panel agreed with FDA’s proposal to reclassify ECMO to class II (special controls) as outlined in the January 8, 2013, proposed order, but recommended that a panel be reconvened to discuss use of ECMO in an adult patient population as the September 12, 2013, panel meeting was focused on the use of ECMO in a pediatric patient population. The discussion at this panel meeting will involve making recommendations regarding regulatory classification to either reconfirm to class III (subject to premarket approval application (PMA)) or reclassify to class II and comment on whether special controls are adequate to assure the safety and effectiveness of this device in an adult patient population. On May 7, 2014, during session II, the committee will discuss and make recommendations regarding the classification of More-than-Minimally Manipulated Allograft Heart Valves (MMM Allograft HVs). An MMM Allograft HV is a human valve or valved-conduit that has been aseptically recovered from qualified donors, dissected free from the human heart, and then subjected to a manufacturing process(es) which alters the original relevant characteristics of the tissue (cf. 21 CFR 1271.3(f), 21 CFR 1271.10(a)(1), and 21 CFR 1271.20). The valve is then stored until needed by a recipient. An E:\FR\FM\14APN1.SGM 14APN1
