K024245 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ENVOY PATIENT MONITOR. Classified as Reduced- Montage Standard Electroencephalograph (product code OMC), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Mennen Medical , Ltd. (Rohovot, IL). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on May 10, 2004 after a review of 504 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Neurology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 882.1400 - the FDA neurology device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: High-complexity regulatory submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. 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.

Device Classification

Product Code OMC Reduced- Montage Standard Electroencephalograph
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 882.1400
Definition Acquire, Display, Store, And Archive Electroencephalographic Signals From The Brain Using A User-specified And/or Sponsor-specified Locations With A Reduced Array (i.e. Less Than < 16) Of Electrodes
What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. This pathway does not require clinical trials - it relies on engineering equivalence and performance data. Most Neurology devices follow this clearance model.
