K003896 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the LYMPHA VISION-EXPERT. Classified as Electrode, Cutaneous (product code GXY), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Bexley Trading, Inc. (Folsom, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on April 24, 2002 after a review of 492 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Neurology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 882.1320 - the FDA neurology device framework. The Abbreviated 510(k) pathway was used, relying on FDA-recognized standards to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

Device pattern: High-complexity regulatory submission. Standards-verified equivalence. The extended review timeline suggests the FDA required additional documentation before confirming substantial equivalence - a pattern common in complex or first-of-kind Neurology submissions.
