K123517 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the GLUCOMENTOR BLOOD GLUCOSE MONITORING SYSTEM, GLUCOMENTOR MULTI BLOOD GLUCOSE .... Classified as System, Test, Blood Glucose, Over The Counter (product code NBW), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Sd Biosensor (Great Neck, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 17, 2014 after a review of 429 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1345 - the FDA in vitro diagnostics and chemistry framework. As a Special 510(k), this submission covers a manufacturer modification to an existing cleared device rather than a new device introduction.

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 Chemistry submissions.
