Under the 1976 Device Amendments, new technology that is not substantially equivalent to a marketed device is automatically put in Class III. This session reviews how to get that class switched to a less risky, less expensive regulatory path.

Learning Objective : Discuss how new technology leads to automatic Class III status for a device, even if not risky; Explain how the FDAMA created a new mechanism to avoid automatic Class III status by the de novo petition process; Examine the advantages and burdens of the process.
