The FDA has the statutory authority under section 304(g) of the FD&C Act to detain devices during establishment inspections which are believed to be adulturated or misbranded. On March 9, 1979, FDA issued a final regulation on Administrative Detention Procedures which includes, among other things, certain reporting and recordkeeping requirements. FDA also has the statutory authority under section 516 of the Act to ban devices that present substantial deception, unreasonable and substantial risk of illness or injury, or unreasonable, direct and substantial danger to the health of individuals. Under these authorities there are requirements pertaining to reporting and recordkeeping activities that are necessary in order for the Agency to carry out its mission to protect the public health.
