| 2016-27107 | Amendment to Guidance for Industry: Use of Serological Tests To Reduce the Risk of Transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi Infection in Whole Blood and Blood Components Intended for Transfusion; Draft Guidance for Industry; Availability | Notice | The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) is announcing the availability of a draft document entitled "Amendment to Guidance for Industry: Use of Serological Tests to Reduce the Risk of Transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi Infection in Whole Blood and Blood Components Intended for Transfusion; Draft Guidance for Industry." The draft guidance document, when finalized, is intended to amend the document entitled "Guidance for Industry: Use of Serological Tests to Reduce the Risk of Transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi Infection in Whole Blood and Blood Components Intended for Transfusion" dated December 2010 (2010 Chagas Guidance) by expanding the scope of the guidance to include the collection of blood and blood components for use in manufacturing a product, including donations intended as a component of, or used to manufacture, a medical device; removing the recommendation to ask donors about a history of Chagas disease; and providing a recommendation for a reentry algorithm for donors deferred on the basis of screening test results for antibodies to Trypanosoma cruzi (T. cruzi) or on the basis of answering "yes" to the Chagas screening question. Further, the guidance is intended to notify blood establishments that collect blood and blood components that FDA has licensed a supplemental test for antibodies to T. cruzi and further testing of donations found repeatedly reactive to a screening test for T. cruzi is therefore required. The draft guidance does not apply to the collection of Source Plasma. | 2016-11-10 | 2016 | 11 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2016/11/10/2016-27107/amendment-to-guidance-for-industry-use-of-serological-tests-to-reduce-the-risk-of-transmission-of | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2016-11-10/pdf/2016-27107.pdf | Health and Human Services Department; Food and Drug Administration | 221,199 | The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) is announcing the availability of a draft document entitled "Amendment to Guidance for Industry: Use of Serological Tests to Reduce the Risk of Transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi Infection in Whole Blood... |
