Medical Devices; Immunology and 
Microbiology Devices; Classification of the Device To Detect and Identify Microorganisms and Associated Resistance Marker Nucleic Acids Directly in Respiratory Specimens 
AGENCY : Food and Drug Administration, 
HHS. 
ACTION : Final order. 
SUMMARY : The Food and Drug 
Administration (FDA or we) is classifying the device to detect and identify microorganisms and associated resistance marker nucleic acids directly in respiratory specimens into class II (special controls). The special controls that apply to the device type are identified in this order and will be part of the codified language for the device to detect and identify microorganisms and associated resistance marker nucleic acids directly in respiratory specimens classification. We are taking this action because we have determined that classifying the device into class II (special controls) will provide a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of the device. We believe this action will also enhance patients’ access to beneficial innovative devices, in part by reducing regulatory burdens. 
DATES : This order is effective March 14, 
2019. The classification was applicable on April 3, 2018. 
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT : Dina 
Jerebitski, Center for Devices and Radiological Health, Food and Drug Administration, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg. 66, Rm. 4450, Silver Spring, MD 20993–0002, 301–796–4221, Dina.Jerebitski@fda.hhs.gov. 
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : 
I. Background 
Upon request, FDA has classified the 
device to detect and identify microorganisms and associated resistance marker nucleic acids directly in respiratory specimens as class II (special controls), which we have determined will provide a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness. In addition, we believe this action will enhance patients’ access to beneficial innovation, in part by reducing regulatory burdens by placing the device into a lower device class than the automatic class III assignment. 
The automatic assignment of class III 
occurs by operation of law and without any action by FDA, regardless of the level of risk posed by the new device. Any device that was not in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976, is automatically classified as, and remains within, class III and requires premarket approval unless and until FDA takes an action to classify or reclassify the device (see 21 U.S.C. 360c(f)(1)). We refer to these devices as ‘‘postamendments devices’’ because they were not in commercial distribution prior to the date of enactment of the Medical Device Amendments of 1976, which amended the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act). 
FDA may take a variety of actions in 
appropriate circumstances to classify or reclassify a device into class I or II. We may issue an order finding a new device to be substantially equivalent under section 513(i) of the FD&C Act to a predicate device that does not require premarket approval (see 21 U.S.C. 360c(i)). We determine whether a new device is substantially equivalent to a predicate by means of the procedures for premarket notification under section 510(k) (21 U.S.C. 360(k)) of the FD&C 
VerDate Sep<11>2014 15:50 Mar 13, 2019 Jkt 247001 PO 00000 Frm 00006 Fmt 4700 Sfmt 4700 E:\FR\FM\14MRR1.SGM 14MRR19227 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 50 / Thursday, March 14, 2019 / Rules and Regulations 
Act and Part 807 (21 CFR part 807) 
respectively. 
FDA may also classify a device 
through ‘‘De Novo’’ classification, a common name for the process authorized under section 513(f)(2) of the FD&C Act. Section 207 of the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act of 1997 established the first procedure for De Novo classification (Pub. L. 105– 115). Section 607 of the Food and Drug Administration Safety and Innovation Act modified the De Novo application process by adding a second procedure (Pub. L. 112–144). A device sponsor may utilize either procedure for De Novo classification. 
Under the first procedure, the person 
submits a 510(k) for a device that has not previously been classified. After receiving an order from FDA classifying the device into class III under section 513(f)(1) of the FD&C Act, the person then requests a classification under section 513(f)(2). 
Under the second procedure, rather 
than first submitting a 510(k) and then a request for classification, if the person determines that there is no legally marketed device upon which to base a determination of substantial equivalence, that person requests a classification under section 513(f)(2) of the FD&C Act. 
Under either procedure for De Novo 
classification, FDA is required to classify the device by written order within 120 days. The classification will be according to the criteria under section 513(a)(1) of the FD&C Act. Although the device was automatically within class III, the De Novo classification is considered to be the initial classification of the device. 
We believe this De Novo classification 
will enhance patients’ access to beneficial innovation, in part by reducing regulatory burdens. When FDA classifies a device into class I or II via the De Novo process, the device can serve as a predicate for future devices of that type, including for 510(k)s (see 21 U.S.C. 360c(f)(2)(B)(i)). As a result, other device sponsors do not have to submit a De Novo request or premarket approval application in order to market a substantially equivalent device (see 21 U.S.C. 360c(i), defining ‘‘substantial equivalence’’). Instead, sponsors can use the 510(k) process, when necessary, to market their device. 
II. De Novo Classification 
On September 11, 2017, Curetis 
GmbH submitted a request for De Novo 
classification of the Unyvero LRT Application. FDA reviewed the request in order to classify the device under the criteria for classification set forth in section 513(a)(1) of the FD&C Act. 
We classify devices into class II if 
general controls by themselves are insufficient to provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness, but there is sufficient information to establish special controls that, in combination with the general controls, provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the device for its intended use (see 21 U.S.C. 360c(a)(1)(B)). After review of the information submitted in the request, we determined that the device can be classified into class II with the establishment of special controls. FDA has determined that these special controls, in addition to the general controls, will provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of the device. 
Therefore, on April 3, 2018, FDA 
issued an order to the requester classifying the device into class II. FDA is codifying the classification of the device by adding 21 CFR 866.3985. We have named the generic type of device ‘‘device to detect and identify microorganisms and associated resistance marker nucleic acids directly in respiratory specimens,’’ and it is identified as an in vitro diagnostic device intended for the detection and identification of microorganisms and associated resistance markers in respiratory specimens collected from patients with signs or symptoms of respiratory infection. The device is intended to aid in the diagnosis of respiratory infection in conjunction with clinical signs and symptoms and other laboratory findings. These devices do not provide confirmation of antibiotic susceptibility since mechanisms of resistance may exist other than those detected by the device. 
FDA has identified the following risks 
to health associated specifically with this type of device and the measures required to mitigate these risks in table 1.

Failure to correctly operate the instrument ........ General Controls and Special Controls (1) (21 CFR 866.3985(b)(1)), (2)(i) (21 CFR 
866.3985(b)(2)(i)), (4)(ii) (21 CFR 866.3985(b)(4)(ii)), (4)(iii) (21 CFR 866.3985(b)(4)(iii)), and (4)(iv) (21 CFR 866.3985(b)(4)(iv)). 
FDA has determined that special 
controls, in combination with the 
general controls, address these risks to health and provide reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness. In order for a device to fall within this classification, and thus avoid automatic classification in class III, it would have to comply with the special controls named in this 
final order. The necessary special controls appear in the regulation codified by this order. This device is 
subject to premarket notification requirements under section 510(k). 
III. Analysis of Environmental Impact 
The Agency has determined under 21 
CFR 25.34(b) that this action is of a type 
that does not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. Therefore, neither an environmental assessment nor an environmental impact statement is required. 
IV. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 
This final order establishes special 
controls that refer to previously 
approved collections of information found in other FDA regulations and guidance. These collections of information are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget
