Description
Document number 2013-14553. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is issuing a proposed administrative order to reclassify intra-aortic balloon and control system devices when indicated for acute coronary syndrome, cardiac and non-cardiac surgery, or complications of heart failure, a preamendments class III device, into class II (special controls) based on new information. FDA is also proposing to require the filing of a premarket approval application (PMA) or a notice of completion of a product development protocol (PDP) for intra-aortic balloon and control systems when indicated for septic shock or pulsatile flow generation. The Agency is also summarizing its proposed findings regarding the degree of risk of illness or injury designed to be eliminated or reduced by requiring the devices to meet the statute's approval requirements when indicated for septic shock or pulsatile flow generation. In addition, FDA is announcing the opportunity for interested persons to request that the Agency change the classification of any of the devices mentioned in this document based on new information. This action implements certain statutory requirements.
