    This information is needed for Class II Medical Device.

    Thanks Meenakshi- I really appreciate it.

    If anyone has worked on such a device, I wanted to understand what the application process looked like. So wanted to get their input.

    Thanks,
    Ritam

    This might not be 100% correct as I'm still working on it, but hope it helps you! I don't think there is a big difference in Class I or II process under the interim order (emergency approval), except for MDEL or MDL requirments.
