K100716 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the AUDIT MICROCV D-DIMER LINEARITY SET, MODEL K717M-5. Classified as Plasma, Coagulation Control (product code GGN), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Aalto Scientific, Ltd. (Carlsbad, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on June 23, 2011 after a review of 468 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Hematology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 864.5425 - the FDA hematology 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 Hematology submissions.
