Device Classification

Product Code QAU Hemostatic Device For Endoscopic Gastrointestinal Use
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 878.4456
Definition Hemostatic Device For Intraluminal Gastrointestinal Use. A Hemostatic Device For Intraluminal Gastrointestinal Use Is A Prescription Device That Is Endoscopically Applied To The Upper And/or Lower Gastrointestinal Tract And Is Intended To Produce Hemostasis Via Absorption Of Fluid Or By Other Physical Means.
What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. Clinical trial data may be submitted as supporting evidence to strengthen the substantial equivalence argument. Most General & Plastic Surgery devices follow this clearance model.
