K033908 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the N HIGH SENSITIVITY CRP. Classified as Cardiac C-reactive Protein, Antigen, Antiserum, And Control (product code NQD), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Dade Behring, Inc. (Newark, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 22, 2004 after a review of 36 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 866.5270 - the FDA in vitro diagnostics and chemistry framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Fast-track predicate clearance. Standard predicate reliance. The short review cycle indicates strong predicate alignment - the FDA found sufficient equivalence without extended technical review.
