Survey of Health Care Practitioners for Device Labeling Format and 
Content--21 CFR Part 801 (OMB Control Number 0910-NEW)

    The purpose of this study is to compare existing device labeling 
from approximately six different types of medical devices with a 
standard content and format of the same labeling that FDA researchers 
will develop using the existing labeling as their source of the 
information.
    Building upon the research methodology and success of the approach 
FDA used to evaluate drug labeling, we propose to measure the usability 
and usefulness of a draft standard content and format of device 
labeling against existing manufacturer labeling of the same device. 
This will support our research that has already been done to assess 
whether health care practitioners (HCPs) find the format and content of 
device labeling to be clear, understandable, useful, and user friendly 
(OMB control number 0910-0715). Findings will provide evidence to 
inform FDA's planned regulatory approach to standardizing medical 
device labeling across the United States.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:
