FDA Updates New Policy on Coagulation Systems for Measurement of Viscoelastic Properties During the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency

Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) updated the immediately in effect guidance: Enforcement Policy for Coagulation Systems for Measurement of Viscoelastic Properties During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Public Health Emergency.

The policy remains unchanged from the initial publication of this guidance; however, this update provides a minor clarification for one of the labeling recommendations. Specifically, the revised guidance recommends that the labeling for devices modified as descried in the guidance include, in addition to other elements, a prominent and clear statement for users that results generated by the device are adjunctive (supporting) and should not be solely or primarily relied upon to diagnose or treat COVID-19 associated coagulopathy.
