In the Federal Register of September 24, 2013 (78 FR 58821), FDA added the definition of ‘‘Human cells, tissues, or cellular or tissue-based product (HCT/P) regulated as a device’’ at § 806.2(f). The addition of this definition caused the paragraphs following paragraph (f) in § 806.2 to be redesignated alphabetically. Although the definitions of the terms were correct in § 806.2, the paragraphs in § 806.1(b) crossreferenced three of the definitions (market withdrawal, routine servicing, and stock recovery) from § 806.2 based on the previous designations.

ACTION: Final rule. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA, the Agency, or we) is issuing a final rule to classify in vitro diagnostic devices for Bacillus species (spp.) detection into class II (special controls) and to continue to require a premarket notification (510(k)) to provide a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of the device. FDA is also establishing special controls in a special controls guideline in addition to restricting use and distribution of the devices. An in vitro diagnostic device for Bacillus spp. detection is a prescription device used to detect and differentiate among Bacillus spp. and presumptively identify B. anthracis and other Bacillus spp. from cultured isolates or clinical specimens as an aid in the diagnosis of anthrax and other diseases caused by Bacillus spp. DATES: This rule is effective May 1, 2019.

Medical Devices; Technical Amendment

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration; HHS.

ACTION: Final rule; technical amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) is amending 
the medical device reports of corrections and removals regulation to 
correct three inaccurate cross-references. This action is editorial in 
nature and is intended to improve the accuracy of the Agency's 
regulations.

DATES: This rule is effective April 1, 2019.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Madhusoodana Nambiar, Office of the 
Center Director, Center for Devices and Radiological Health, Food and 
Drug Administration, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 66, Rm. 5518, 
Silver Spring, MD 20993-0002, 301-796-5837.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FDA is amending 21 CFR 806.1 to correct 
three inaccurate cross-references to ensure accuracy and clarity in the 
Agency's medical device regulations regarding medical device reports of 
corrections and removals. Publication of this document constitutes 
final action under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553). FDA 
has determined that notice and public comment are unnecessary because 
this amendment to the regulation is nonsubstantive and provides only 
technical changes to correct inaccurate cross-references.
    In the Federal Register of September 24, 2013 (78 FR 58821), FDA 
added the definition of ``Human cells, tissues, or cellular or tissue-
based product (HCT/P) regulated as a device'' at Sec.  806.2(f). The 
addition of this definition caused the paragraphs following paragraph 
(f) in Sec.  806.2 to be redesignated alphabetically. Although the 
definitions of the terms were correct in Sec.  806.2, the paragraphs in 
Sec.  806.1(b) cross-referenced three of the definitions (market 
withdrawal, routine servicing, and stock recovery) from Sec.  806.2 
based on the previous designations.

List of Subjects in 21 CFR Part 806

    Imports; Medical devices; Reporting and recordkeeping requirements.

    Therefore, under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and under 
authority delegated to the Commissioner of Food and Drugs, 21 CFR part 
806 is amended as follows:
