DEN210015 is an FDA 510(k) submission (not cleared) for the Sunrise Sleep Disorder Diagnostic Aid. Classified as Device For Sleep Apnea Testing Based On Mandibular Movement (product code QRS), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Sunrise (Namur, BE). The FDA issued a Not Cleared (DENG) decision on January 7, 2022 after a review of 280 days.

This device falls under the Anesthesiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 868.2376 - the FDA anesthesiology and respiratory device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway requires demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device - a standard the FDA determined was not met in this submission.

Device pattern: Regulatory edge-case submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. With 280 days under review and no clearance granted, this submission reflects a case where the FDA could not confirm sufficient predicate equivalence - often indicating either a novel device category or unresolved safety and performance questions.
