K160753 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the COOK Vacuum Pump. Classified as Accessory, Assisted Reproduction (product code MQG), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by William A. Cook Australia Pty. , Ltd. (Eight Mile Plains, AU). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on June 13, 2017 after a review of 452 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Obstetrics & Gynecology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 884.6120 - the FDA obstetrics and gynecology 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: 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 Obstetrics & Gynecology submissions.
