K110416 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ABL835 FLEX ANALYZER WITH PLEURAL PH. Classified as Electrode Measurement, Blood-gases (pco2, Po2) And Blood Ph (product code CHL), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Radiometer Medical Aps (Broenshoej, DK). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on March 24, 2011 after a review of 38 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1120 - the FDA in vitro diagnostics and chemistry framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.
