Draft Guidance on Remanufacturing of Medical Devices- USA-FDA

Writer's picture: Sharan MuruganSharan Murugan

Medical devices encompass a vast array of products with different technologies, product lifecycles, complexity, intended users, and environments of use. Many devices are reusable and need preventive maintenance and repair during their useful life. For these devices, proper servicing is critical to their continued safe and effective use.

This draft guidance is intended to help clarify whether activities performed on devices are likely "remanufacturing." Such clarification is intended to help provide consistency and better understanding of applicable statutory and regulatory requirements.


Also includes recommendations for information that should be included in labeling to help assure the continued quality, safety, and effectiveness of devices that are intended to be serviced over their useful life.


FDA considers comments on a draft guidance before it begins work on the final version of the guidance, submit either online or written comments on the draft guidance before by 08/23/2021.
