Notice.
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is announcing
that a proposed collection of
information has been submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and clearance under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
DATES: Fax written comments on the
collection of information by May 14,
2014.
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:
202–395–7285, or emailed to oira_

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:

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

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
