Medical Devices; Exemption From Premarket Notification; Class II Devices; Powered Wheeled Stretcher
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) is publishing an order granting a petition requesting exemption from premarket notification (510(k)) requirements for powered wheeled stretchers (product code INK).
