21 C.F.R. § 876.1 Scope.
Title 21 - Food and Drugs
(a) This part sets forth the classification of gastroenterology-urology devices intended for human use that are in commercial distribution. (b) The identification of a device in a regulation in this part is not a precise description of every device that is, or will be, subject to the regulation. A manufacturer who submits a premarket notification submission for a device under part 807 may not show merely that the device is accurately described by the section title and identification provisions of a regulation in this part, but shall state why the device is substantially equivalent to other devices, as required by §807.87. (c) To avoid duplicative listings, a gastroenterology-urology device that has two or more types of uses (e.g., used both as a diagnostic device and as a therapeutic device) is listed only in one subpart. (d) References in this part to regulatory sections of the Code of Federal Regulations are to chapter I of title 21, unless otherwise noted. (e) Guidance documents referenced in this part are available on the Internet at http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/guidance.php.
