*Federal Register* Notice: FDA is completing the target of the goal established to address CDRH’s 2014-2015 Strategic Priority “Strike the Right Balance Between Premarket and Postmarket Data Collection.” To achieve this strategic priority, CDRH established a goal to facilitate and expedite the development and review of medical devices, in particular high-risk devices of public health importance. The agency established a target date of 12/31/15, by which to review 100% of product codes subject to a PMA that are legally marketed and were approved prior to 2010 to determine, for each such product code, whether or not, to reduce premarket data collection by relying more on postmarket controls, and whether to shift some premarket data collection to the postmarket setting or to pursue down-classification.
