The guidance includes recommendations for planning, notification, and documentation for firms that report postmarketing adverse events. The guidance recommends that each firm’s pandemic influenza continuity of operations plan (COOP) include instructions for reporting adverse events, including a plan for the submission of stored reports that were not submitted within regulatory timeframes. The guidance explains that firms that are unable to fulfill normal adverse event reporting requirements during an influenza pandemic should: (1) Maintain documentation of the conditions that prevent them from meeting normal reporting requirements; (2) notify the appropriate FDA organizational unit responsible for adverse event reporting compliance when the conditions exist and when the reporting process is restored; and (3) maintain records to identify what reports have been stored. Based on the number of manufacturers that would be covered by the guidance, we estimate that approximately 5,000 firms will add the following to their COOP: (1) Instructions for reporting adverse events and (2) a PO 00000 Frm 00029 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 0910–0849 0910–0695 0910–0001 0910–0284 0910–0325 0910–0780 Date approval expires 1/31/2021 2/28/2021 3/31/2021 3/31/2021 3/31/2021 3/31/2021 plan for submitting stored reports that were not submitted within regulatory timeframes. We estimate that each firm will take approximately 50 hours to prepare the adverse event reporting plan for its COOP. We estimate that approximately 500 firms will be unable to fulfill normal adverse event reporting requirements because of conditions caused by an influenza pandemic and that these firms will notify the appropriate FDA organizational unit responsible for adverse event reporting compliance when the conditions exist. Although we do not anticipate such pandemic influenza conditions to occur every year, for purposes of the PRA, we estimate that each of these firms will notify FDA approximately once each year and that each notification will take approximately 8 hours to prepare and submit. Concerning the recommendation in the guidance that firms unable to fulfill normal adverse event reporting requirements maintain documentation of the conditions that prevent them from meeting these requirements and also maintain records to identify what adverse event reports have been stored and when the reporting process is restored, we estimate that approximately 500 firms will each need approximately 8 hours to maintain the documentation and that approximately 500 firms will each need approximately 8 hours to maintain the records. In the Federal Register of October 31, 2017 (82 FR 50431) we published a notice inviting public comment of the proposed collection of information. Although one comment was received, it did not respond to any of the four information collection topics solicited in the notice under the PRA.

Section 301 of the Medical Device User Fee and Modernization Act of 2002 (Pub. L. 107– 250) amended section 502 of the FD&C Act to add section 502(u) to require devices (both new and reprocessed) to bear prominently and conspicuously the name of the manufacturer, a generally recognized abbreviation of such name, or a unique and generally recognized symbol identifying the manufacturer. Section 2(c) of the Medical Device User Fee Stabilization Act of 2005 (Pub. L. 109–43) amends section 502(u) of the PO 00000 Frm 00030 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 FD&C Act by limiting the provision to reprocessed single-use devices (SUDs) and the manufacturers who reprocess them. Under the amended provision, if the original SUD or an attachment to it prominently and conspicuously bears the name of the manufacturer, then the reprocessor of the SUD is required to identify itself by name, abbreviation, or symbol in a prominent and conspicuous manner on the device or attachment to the device. If the original SUD does not prominently and conspicuously bear the name of the manufacturer, the manufacturer who reprocesses the SUD for reuse may identify itself using a detachable label that is intended to be affixed to the patient record. The requirements of section 502(u) of the FD&C Act impose a minimal burden on industry. This section of the FD&C Act only requires the manufacturer, packer, or distributor of a device to include their name and address on the labeling of a device. This information is readily available to the establishment and easily supplied. From its registration and premarket submission database, FDA estimates that there are 67 establishments that distribute approximately 427 reprocessed SUDs. Each response is anticipated to take 0.1 hours (6 minutes) resulting in a total burden to industry of 43 hours. In the Federal Register of December 19, 2017 (82 FR 60207), 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\09APN1.SGM 09APN1

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.

Guidance for Industry on Postmarketing Adverse Event Reporting for 
Medical Products and Dietary Supplements During an Influenza Pandemic

OMB Control Number 0910-0701--Extension

    This information collection supports the above captioned Agency 
guidance. The guidance includes recommendations for planning, 
notification, and documentation for firms that report postmarketing 
adverse events. The guidance recommends that each firm's pandemic 
influenza continuity of operations plan (COOP) include instructions for 
reporting adverse events, including a plan for the submission of stored 
reports that were not submitted within regulatory timeframes. The 
guidance explains that firms that are unable to fulfill normal adverse 
event reporting requirements during an influenza pandemic should: (1) 
Maintain documentation of the conditions that prevent them from meeting 
normal reporting requirements; (2) notify the appropriate FDA 
organizational unit responsible for adverse event reporting compliance 
when the conditions exist and when the reporting process is restored; 
and (3) maintain records to identify what reports have been stored.
    Based on the number of manufacturers that would be covered by the 
guidance, we estimate that approximately 5,000 firms will add the 
following to their COOP: (1) Instructions for reporting adverse events 
and (2) a plan for submitting stored reports that were not submitted 
within regulatory timeframes. We estimate that each firm will take 
approximately 50 hours to prepare the adverse event reporting plan for 
its COOP.
    We estimate that approximately 500 firms will be unable to fulfill 
normal adverse event reporting requirements because of conditions 
caused by an influenza pandemic and that these firms will notify the 
appropriate FDA organizational unit responsible for adverse event 
reporting compliance when the conditions exist. Although we do not 
anticipate such pandemic influenza conditions to occur every year, for 
purposes of the PRA, we estimate that each of these firms will notify 
FDA approximately once each year and that each notification will take 
approximately 8 hours to prepare and submit.
    Concerning the recommendation in the guidance that firms unable to 
fulfill normal adverse event reporting requirements maintain 
documentation of the conditions that prevent them from meeting these 
requirements and also maintain records to identify what adverse event 
reports have been stored and when the reporting process is restored, we 
estimate that approximately 500 firms will each need approximately 8 
hours to maintain the documentation and that approximately 500 firms 
will each need approximately 8 hours to maintain the records.
    In the Federal Register of October 31, 2017 (82 FR 50431) we 
published a notice inviting public comment of the proposed collection 
of information. Although one comment was received, it did not respond 
to any of the four information collection topics solicited in the 
notice under the PRA. We therefore made no changes to our estimate of 
the burden for the information collection, which remains as follows:
