K083809 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the CREATININE. Classified as Alkaline Picrate, Colorimetry, Creatinine (product code CGX), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Abbott Laboratories (Irving, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on April 7, 2009 after a review of 106 days - within the typical 510(k) review window.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1225 - the FDA in vitro diagnostics and chemistry framework. As a Special 510(k), this submission covers a manufacturer modification to an existing cleared device rather than a new device introduction.

Device pattern: Iterative device modification. Standard predicate reliance. This Special 510(k) clearance confirms that the manufacturer's modifications remained within the established regulatory envelope of the original cleared device.
