Submitted by R82 A/S (Gedved, DK). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on May 20, 2016 after a review of 352 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Physical Medicine FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 890.3850 - the FDA physical medicine device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Physical Medicine review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
