K172890 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the SedLine Sedation Monitor. Classified as Index-generating Electroencephalograph Software (product code OLW), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Masimo Corporation (Irvine, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 26, 2018 after a review of 126 days - within the typical 510(k) review window.

This device falls under the Neurology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 882.1400 - the FDA neurology 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. Standard predicate reliance. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Neurology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.

Device Classification

Product Code OLW Index-generating Electroencephalograph Software
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 882.1400
Definition Analyze Electrical Activity Of The Brain By Transformation Of Electroencephalograph Signals Into A Dimensionless Index Number For Use And Interpretation By A Qualified User.
What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. Clinical trial data may be submitted as supporting evidence to strengthen the substantial equivalence argument. Most Neurology devices follow this clearance model.
