K120597 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the KOMPREDA. Classified as System, Facet Screw Spinal Device (product code MRW).

Submitted by Custom Spine, Inc. (Parsippany, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on May 3, 2013 after a review of 430 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Orthopedic 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 Orthopedic submissions.
