Overview

What Is Premarket Approval (PMA)?

Premarket approval (PMA) is the scientific and regulatory review FDA conducts to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Class III medical devices – those devices that support or sustain human life, are of substantial importance in preventing impairment of human health, or present a potential, unreasonable risk of illness or injury. Due to the level of risk associated with Class III devices, FDA decided that general and special controls alone are insufficient to ensure the safety and effectiveness of such devices.

PMA is the most stringent type of device marketing application required by FDA. Applicants must receive FDA approval of their PMA application prior to marketing the device. FDA issues this approval when the PMA contains sufficient, valid scientific evidence to ensure that the device is safe and effective for its intended use(s).
