Reprocessing Medical Devices in
Health Care Settings: Validation
Methods and Labeling; Guidance for
Industry and Food and Drug
Administration Staff; Availability
AGENCY:
Food and Drug Administration,
HHS.
ACTION:
Notice.
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is announcing the
availability of the guidance entitled
‘‘Reprocessing Medical Devices in
Health Care Settings: Validation
Methods and Labeling.’’ This guidance
provides recommendations for the
formulation and scientific validation of
reprocessing instructions for reusable
medical devices. This guidance
document also provides
recommendations for the content and
review procedures for premarket
notification (510(k)) submissions,
premarket approval (PMA) applications,
humanitarian device exemption (HDE)
applications, de novo requests, and
investigational device exemption (IDE)
applications, concerning the labeling
instructions for reprocessing reusable
medical devices. This guidance reflects
the scientific advances in knowledge
and technology involved in reprocessing
reusable medical devices, especially
more complex, reusable medical device
designs that are more difficult to
reprocess.
SUMMARY:
Submit either electronic or
written comments on this guidance at
any time. General comments on Agency
guidance documents are welcome at any
time.
ADDRESSES: An electronic copy of the
guidance document is available for
download from the Internet. See the
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION section for
information on electronic access to the
guidance. Submit written requests for a
single hard copy of the guidance
document entitled ‘‘Reprocessing
Medical Devices in Health Care Settings:
Validation Methods and Labeling’’ to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
In recent years, there has been a
significant advance in knowledge and
technology involved in reprocessing
reusable medical devices. Additionally,
there has been an evolution towards
more complex medical device designs
that are more difficult to clean,
disinfect, and sterilize. This guidance
reflects the scientific advances in these
areas. Under section 502(f) of the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
(21 U.S.C. 352(f)), a device must have
adequate directions for use, which
include instructions on preparing a
device for use. Instructions on how to
reprocess (i.e., clean, disinfect, and
sterilize) a reusable device are critical to
ensure that the device is appropriately
prepared for its next use.
In the Federal Register of May 2, 2011
(76 FR 24494), FDA announced the
availability of the draft guidance.
Interested persons were invited to
comment by August 1, 2011. FDA
reviewed and considered all the public
comments we received and revised
several sections of the guidance, where
applicable. On June 8 and 9, 2011, FDA
held a public workshop entitled
‘‘Reprocessing of Reusable Medical
Devices Workshop.’’ The purpose of the
workshop was to discuss factors
affecting the reprocessing of reusable
medical devices and FDA’s plans to
address the identified issues. The
discussion during this workshop and
the comments received were considered
before revising the guidance. This final
guidance supersedes ‘‘Labeling Reusable
