SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES I. Background FDA is announcing the availability of a guidance to provide an assessment paradigm for RF-induced heating on or near multicomponent or multiconfiguration passive medical devices in the MR environment. During MR scanning, applied RF excitation pulses induce currents that can cause heating of electrically conductive materials. RF-induced heating of medical devices made with conductive materials may lead to patient burns. To minimize the risk of patient burns during MR scanning, sponsors should comprehensively assess devices in all configurations and combinations. However, multicomponent passive devices, such as orthopedic fixation devices, may permit a very large number of possible device configurations and combinations of individual components. Testing all possibilities may be impractical and unnecessary. This guidance provides an approach to identify a manageable number of device configurations or combinations for the VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:34 Mar 21, 2016 Jkt 238001 testing of RF-induced heating in the MR environment. Additionally, this guidance provides recommendations on how to assess the RF-induced device heating for multiconfiguration passive medical devices. In the Federal Register of June 29, 2015 (80 FR 36996), the Agency announced the issuance of the draft guidance entitled ‘‘Assessment of Radiofrequency-Induced Heating in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment for Multi-Configuration Passive Medical Devices.’’ Interested persons were invited to comment by August 28, 2015. II. Significance of Guidance This guidance is being issued consistent with FDA’s good guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The guidance represents the current thinking of FDA on the assessment of RF-induced heating of multicomponent, or multiconfiguration, passive medical devices in the MR environment. It does not establish any rights for any person and is not binding on FDA or the public. You can use an alternative approach if it satisfies the requirements of the applicable statutes and regulations. III. Electronic Access Persons interested in obtaining a copy of the guidance may do so by downloading an electronic copy from the Internet. A search capability for all Center for Devices and Radiological Health guidance documents is available at https://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/ DeviceRegulationandGuidance/ GuidanceDocuments/default.htm. Guidance documents are also available at https://www.regulations.gov. Persons unable to download an electronic copy of ‘‘Assessment of RadiofrequencyInduced Heating in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment for MultiConfiguration Passive Medical Devices’’ may send an email request to CDRHGuidance@fda.hhs.gov to receive an electronic copy of the document.
