Sections 820.198(a) through (g) and 820.200(a) through (d), respectively, require the establishment, maintenance, and/or documentation of the following topics: (1) Complaint files and procedures for receiving, reviewing, and evaluating complaints; (2) complaint investigation records identifying the device, complainant, and relationship of the device to the incident; (3) complaint records that are reasonably accessible to the manufacturing site or at prescribed sites; (4) procedures for performing and verifying that device servicing requirements are met and that service E:\FR\FM\31JYN1.SGM 31JYN1 37320 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 147 / Wednesday, July 31, 2019 / Notices reports involving complaints are processed as complaints; and (5) service reports that record the device, service activity, and test and inspection data. Section 820.250 requires the establishment and maintenance of procedures to identify valid statistical techniques necessary to verify process and product acceptability; and sampling plans, when used, which are written and based on valid statistical rationale; and procedures for ensuring adequate sampling methods. The CGMP/QS regulation added design and purchasing controls, modified previous critical device requirements, revised previous validation and other requirements, and harmonized device CGMP requirements with QS specifications in the international standard ‘‘ISO 9001: Quality Systems Model for Quality Assurance in Design/Development, Production, Installation, and Servicing.’’ The rule does not apply to manufacturers of components or parts of finished devices, or to manufacturers of human blood and blood components subject to 21 CFR part 606. With respect to devices classified in class I, design control requirements apply only to class I devices listed in § 820.30(a)(2) of the regulation. The rule imposes burden upon: (1) Finished device manufacturer firms, which are subject to all recordkeeping requirements; (2) finished device contract manufacturers, specification developers; and (3) repacker, re-labelers, and contract sterilizer firms, which are subject only to requirements applicable to their activities. In addition, remanufacturers of hospital single-use devices are now considered to have the same requirements as manufacturers in regard to the regulation. The establishment, maintenance, and/ or documentation of procedures, records, and data required by the regulation assists FDA in determining whether firms are in compliance with CGMP requirements, which are intended to ensure that devices meet their design, production, labeling, installation, and servicing specifications and, thus are safe, effective, and suitable for their intended purpose. In particular, compliance with CGMP design control requirements should decrease the number of design-related device failures that have resulted in deaths and serious injuries. The CGMP/QS regulation applies to approximately 27,074 respondents. This estimate is based on a query of the Agency’s registration and listing database. Respondents to this information collection have no reporting activities, but must make required records available for review or copying during FDA inspection. Except for manufacturers, not every type of firm is subject to every CGMP/QS requirement. For example, all are subject to Quality Policy (§ 820.20(a)), Document Control (§ 820.40), and other requirements, whereas only manufacturers and specification developers are subject to subpart C, Design Controls. The PRA burden placed on the 27,074 establishments is an average burden. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: TABLE 1—ESTIMATED ANNUAL RECORDKEEPING BURDEN 1 Number of recordkeepers jbell on DSK3GLQ082PROD with NOTICES Activity/21 CFR section Quality policy—820.20(a) .....................................................

Medical Devices: Current Good Manufacturing Practice Quality System 
Regulation--21 CFR Part 820

OMB Control Number 0910-0073--Extension

    Under section 520(f) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act 
(FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 360j(f)), the Secretary of the Department of 
Health and Human Services has the authority to prescribe regulations 
requiring that the methods used in, and the facilities and controls 
used for, the manufacture, preproduction design validation (including a 
process to assess the performance of a device, but not including an 
evaluation of the safety and effectiveness of a device), packing, 
storage, and installation of a device conform to CGMP, as described in 
such regulations, to assure that the device will be safe and effective 
and otherwise in compliance with the FD&C Act.
    The CGMP/QS regulation implementing authority provided by this 
statutory provision is found under part 820 (21 CFR part 820) and sets 
forth basic CGMP requirements governing the design, manufacture, 
packing, labeling, storage, installation, and servicing of all finished

    Section 820.250 requires the establishment and maintenance of 
procedures to identify valid statistical techniques necessary to verify 
process and product acceptability; and sampling plans, when used, which 
are written and based on valid statistical rationale; and procedures 
for ensuring adequate sampling methods.
    The CGMP/QS regulation added design and purchasing controls, 
modified previous critical device requirements, revised previous 
validation and other requirements, and harmonized device CGMP 
requirements with QS specifications in the international standard ``ISO 
9001: Quality Systems Model for Quality Assurance in Design/
Development, Production, Installation, and Servicing.'' The rule does 
not apply to manufacturers of components or parts of finished devices, 
or to manufacturers of human blood and blood components subject to 21 
CFR part 606. With respect to devices classified in class I, design 
control requirements apply only to class I devices listed in Sec.  
820.30(a)(2) of the regulation. The rule imposes burden upon: (1) 
Finished device manufacturer firms, which are subject to all 
recordkeeping requirements; (2) finished device contract manufacturers, 
specification developers; and (3) re-packer, re-labelers, and contract 
sterilizer firms, which are subject only to requirements applicable to 
their activities. In addition, remanufacturers of hospital single-use 
devices are now considered to have the same requirements as 
manufacturers in regard to the regulation.
    The establishment, maintenance, and/or documentation of procedures, 
records, and data required by the regulation assists FDA in determining 
whether firms are in compliance with CGMP requirements, which are 
intended to ensure that devices meet their design, production, 
labeling, installation, and servicing specifications and, thus are 
safe, effective, and suitable for their intended purpose. In 
particular, compliance with CGMP design control requirements should 
decrease the number of design-related device failures that have 
resulted in deaths and serious injuries.
    The CGMP/QS regulation applies to approximately 27,074 respondents. 
This estimate is based on a query of the Agency's registration and 
listing database. Respondents to this information collection have no 
reporting activities, but must make required records available for 
review or copying during FDA inspection. Except for manufacturers, not 
every type of firm is subject to every CGMP/QS requirement. For 
example, all are subject to Quality Policy (Sec.  820.20(a)), Document 
Control (Sec.  820.40), and other requirements, whereas only 
manufacturers and specification developers are subject to subpart C, 
Design Controls. The PRA burden placed on the 27,074 establishments is 
an average burden.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:
