K032291 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the TOSCA PCO2, SPO2 AND PULSE RATE MONITORING SYSTEM. Classified as Radioimmunoassay, Digoxin (125-i), Goat Antibody, Anion Exchange, Resin Sep. (product code DOA), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Linde Medical Sensors AG (Basel, CH). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on August 24, 2004 after a review of 397 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Toxicology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.3320 - the FDA toxicology 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: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Toxicology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.

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 Toxicology devices follow this clearance model.
