SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    Section 204 of the Food and Drug Administration Modernization Act 
of 1997 (Pub. L. 105-115) amended section 514 of the Federal Food, 
Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 360d). Amended section 514 
allows FDA to recognize consensus standards developed by international 
and national organizations for use in satisfying portions of device 
premarket review submissions or other requirements.
    In the Federal Register of September 14, 2018 (83 FR 46738), FDA 
announced the availability of a guidance entitled ``Appropriate Use of 
Voluntary Consensus Standards in Premarket Submissions for Medical 
Devices.'' The guidance describes how FDA has implemented its standard 
recognition program and is available at https://www.fda.gov/downloads/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/GuidanceDocuments/ucm077295.pdf. Modifications to the initial list of recognized 
standards, as published in the Federal Register, can be accessed at 
https://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/Standards/ucm123792.htm.
    These notices describe the addition, withdrawal, and revision of 
certain standards recognized by FDA. The Agency maintains hypertext 
markup language (HTML) and portable document format (PDF) versions of 
the list of FDA Recognized Consensus Standards. Additional information 
on the Agency's standards program is available at https://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/Standards/default.htm.

II. Modifications to the List of Recognized Standards, Recognition List 
Number: 051

    FDA is announcing the addition, withdrawal, correction, and 
revision of certain consensus standards the Agency is recognizing for 
use in premarket submissions and other requirements for devices. FDA is 
incorporating these modifications to the list of FDA Recognized 
Consensus Standards in the Agency's searchable database. FDA is using 
the term ``Recognition List Number: 051'' to identify the current 
modifications.
    In table 1, FDA describes the following modifications: (1) The 
withdrawal of standards and their replacement by others, if applicable; 
(2) the correction of errors made by FDA in listing previously 
recognized standards; and (3) the changes to the supplementary 
information sheets of recognized standards that describe revisions to 
the applicability of the standards.
    In section III, FDA lists modifications the Agency is making that 
involve the initial addition of standards not previously recognized by 
FDA.

IV. List of Recognized Standards

    FDA maintains the current list of FDA Recognized Consensus 
Standards in a searchable database that may be accessed at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfStandards/search.cfm. Such 
standards are those that FDA has recognized by notice published in the 
Federal Register or that FDA has decided to recognize but for which 
recognition is pending (because a periodic notice has not yet appeared 
in the Federal Register). FDA will announce additional modifications 
and revisions to the list of recognized consensus standards, as needed, 
in the Federal Register once a year, or more often if necessary. 
Beginning with list 52, FDA will no longer announce in the Federal 
Register updates to current recognized standards for reapproved or 
reaffirmed standards because reapproved or reaffirmed standards have 
not changed from the recognized standard. International and national 
standards developing organizations use the designations of reapproved 
or reaffirmed to indicate a standard has been reviewed but no changes 
were made to the standard at that time.

V. Recommendation of Standards for Recognition by FDA

    Any person may recommend consensus standards as candidates for 
recognition under section 514 of the FD&C Act by submitting such 
recommendations, with reasons for the recommendation, to 
CDRHStandardsStaff@fda.hhs.gov. To be considered, such recommendations 
should contain, at a minimum, the following information available at 
https://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/Standards/ucm123739.htm.
