  • 1.  Class I Devices - NOT 510(k) Exempt?

    Posted 30-Jul-2020 00:15
    I am in search of Class I devices that are NOT exempt from premarket notification. 

    If anyone knows of a neat little list, I'd appreciate it if you pointed me to it.  If anyone knows of an easy way to find them in an FDA database, the same.  If you happen to know of a non-exempt Class I, I'd be happy to hear about it, too.

    Thanks,

    You can go to the product classification database and select  "510k" under the submission type and select Class I as the drop down for the Class.

    To see neat little lists of Class I 510(k)-exempt (and/or GMP-exempt) devices grouped by classification panel, click on each panel at: https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpcd/315.cfm

    Hope this helps.

    Clarifying my post made on this late evening after a long day: The lists only show which ones are 510(k) and/or GMP-exempt, so the classification database method noted by Isabella Schmitt is a great way.

    I think you are referring to the reserved devices. See first paragraph under Class I Devices header here https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfPCD/315.cfm

    Thanks Isabella, Kevin, Adam.  Very relieved to know I don't have to search for them one by one!

    Julie,
    Attached is a list of all Class I product codes with their submission type and GMP exemption status.  Included all Class 1 codes, so you can sort as you like.  Need another piece of info on these?  Let me know and I will run another report.
    Cheers,
    Melissa

    Thanks, Melissa.  I was actually looking for not 510(k) exempt, rather than not GMP exempt.  I think Isabella has got me pointed in the right direction, but if I run into problems, or have follow-on questions, I'll be back...

    You can see that in the "Submission Type" column.  Just sort based on that column and they should pop right up.

    Cheers,
