for reference in english

A predicate device is a device that:
Was legally marketed in the U.S. prior to May 28, 1976 (preamendment; “grand-fathered” devices), and:
Has not been significantly changed/
modified since then; and
For which a regulation requiring a PMA application has not been published by the FDA; or
Which has been reclassified from Class III to Class II; or
Which itself has been found to be substantially equivalent through the 510(k) process, after May 28, 1976.
The term predicate device only applies to devices in categories subject to 510(k) review, and not devices requiring premarket approval (PMA), since the basis of the PMA is not a comparison of one device to another (preexisting device) as it is in a 510(k).
