I. Introduction of FDA
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (U.S. Food and Drug Administration, abbreviated as FDA) is a federal government agency under the authority of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, whose primary function is to supervise and regulate the domestic production and importation of food, dietary supplements, drugs, vaccines, bio-pharmaceutical preparations, blood preparations, medical devices, radiological devices, veterinary drugs, and cosmetics. It is also responsible for the enforcement of Section 361 of the Public Health Service Act, including the inspection of public health conditions and interstate travel and transportation, and the control of diseases that may be present in many products. The FDA has the power to inspect manufacturers and to prosecute offenders.
510(K) refers to an application to the FDA for permission to enter the US market for a medical device, i.e. a Pre-market Notification, named because it corresponds to Chapter 510 of the US Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act). It is intended to demonstrate that the product is Substantially Equivalent to a product already on the market. Substantial Equivalence means: proof that the product for which marketing is sought is substantially equivalent in terms of safety and efficacy compared to a product already legally marketed in the United States.
