K101114 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ADVANCIS ACTIVON TUBE. Classified as Dressing, Wound, Drug (product code FRO).
Submitted by Advancis Medical (Kirby In Ashfield, GB). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on July 26, 2011 after a review of 461 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.
This device falls under the General & Plastic Surgery FDA review panel. 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 General & Plastic Surgery submissions.
