FR Recognition List Number 051 Date of Entry 01/14/2019 
FR Recognition Number 3-138
Standard
ASTM  F2942-13
Standard Guide for the In Vitro Axial, Bending, and Rotational Durability Test of Vascular Stents
Scope/Abstract
This guide includes three separate cyclic deformation durability guides related to vascular stents: bending, axial, and torsional.This guide does not address flat plate, local crush durability, or multi-mode testing.
Extent of Recognition
Complete standard
Rationale for Recognition
This standard is relevant to medical devices and is recognized on its scientific and technical merit and/or because it supports existing regulatory policies.
Transition Period
FDA recognition of ASTM F2942-13 [Rec# 3-138] will be superseded by recognition of ASTM F2942-19 [Rec# 3-189].
