K161556 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the CDC Human Influenza Virus Real-time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel, Influenza A Subt.... Classified as Influenza A And Influenza B Multiplex Nucleic Acid Assay (product code OZE), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Centers For Disease Control and Prevention (Cdc) (Atlanta, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on June 30, 2016 after a review of 24 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Microbiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 866.3980 - the FDA microbiology device 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: Iterative device modification. Low regulatory complexity profile. This Special 510(k) clearance confirms that the manufacturer's modifications remained within the established regulatory envelope of the original cleared device.

OZE Device Classification - Class 2, Special Controls

Product Code OZE Influenza A And Influenza B Multiplex Nucleic Acid Assay
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 866.3980
Definition An Influenza A And Influenza B Multiplex Nucleic Acid Assay Is A Multiplex In Vitro Diagnostic Test For The Simultaneous Qualitative Detection And Discrimination Of Influenza A And Influenza B Nucleic Acids Isolated And Purified From Human Respiratory Specimens Obtained From Individuals Exhibiting Signs And Symptoms Of Respiratory Tract Infections Or Viral Culture. The Detection And Discrimination Of Influenza A And B Nucleic Acids From Symptomatic Patients Aid In The Diagnosis Of Human Respiratory Tract Influenza Viral Infections If Used In Conjunction With Other Clinical And Laboratory Findings.
What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. This pathway does not require clinical trials - it relies on engineering equivalence and performance data. Most Microbiology devices follow this clearance model.
