Submitted by Fujinon, Inc. (Wayne, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on July 26, 2012 after a review of 342 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.
This device falls under the Gastroenterology & Urology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 876.1500 - the FDA gastroenterology and urology device framework. As a Special 510(k), this submission covers a manufacturer modification to an existing cleared device rather than a new device introduction.
