Executive Summary
The US FDA's device center wants PDFs submitted through the system to be formatted properly to prevent unnecessary delays when reviewers work with them. With this aim in mind, on Dec. 3, the Center for Devices and Radiological Health released an updated guidance (PDF) for industry on its electronic copy (eCopy) program for medical device submissions based on recommendations from Booz Allen Hamilton as part of the contractor's ongoing independent review of FDA's procedures.
