What Does FDA Registration Mean for a Hyperbaric Device?

Direct answer: FDA establishment registration and device listing are administrative obligations that may apply to a manufacturer, importer, or other establishment under the device rules. Registration and listing do not by themselves mean FDA approval, clearance, or authorization for every intended use. The applicable obligations depend on the product, responsible establishment, distribution activity, classification, and claims.
