K100404 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ASCENDX VCF REDUCTION SYSTEM. Classified as Cement, Bone, Vertebroplasty (product code NDN), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Aoi Medical, Inc. (Philedelphia, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on December 14, 2012 after a review of 1032 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Orthopedic FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 888.3027 - the FDA orthopedic device regulatory 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 Orthopedic submissions.
