K063532 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the BARD E LUMINEXX BILIARY STENT. Classified as Stents, Drains And Dilators For The Biliary Ducts (product code FGE), Class II - Special Controls.
Submitted by Bard Peripheral Vascular, Inc. (Tempe, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on May 30, 2008 after a review of 555 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.
This device falls under the Gastroenterology & Urology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 876.5010 - the FDA gastroenterology and urology 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 Gastroenterology & Urology submissions.
