MCW Device Classification - Class 2, Special Controls

Product Code MCW Catheter, Peripheral, Atherectomy
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 870.4875
What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. Clinical trial data may be submitted as supporting evidence to strengthen the substantial equivalence argument. Most Cardiovascular devices follow this clearance model.
