UDI Direct Marking for FDA Compliance Navigating New Rules
Confused by the FDA’s UDI direct marking regulations? What information should go on the label and the device itself? What methods of marking are acceptable? What’s the difference between a device identifier and a production identifier? What additional requirements are placed on reprocessed devices?
The FDA’s final guidance on UDI (unique device identification) raises as many questions as it answers. With full compliance for Class I, II and unclassified devices looming, lawyers are hard at work parsing the FDA’s language.
Jay Crowley was the architect of UDI while at the FDA. Now a consultant advising devicemakers, he remains the go-to expert on UDI compliance. In the FDAnewsBrief, UDI Direct Marking for FDA Compliance, Crowley lays out a path to compliance. He explains:
The technology necessary for creating and verifying bar codes
The difference between direct marking and direct part marking
How the rules apply to device components and accessories
Exceptions to the direct marking requirements
Record-keeping requirements
Testing to make sure any direct mark doesn’t affect the safety or performance of the device
