K183052 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ID-Cap System. Classified as Ingestible Event Marker (product code OZW), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Etectrx, Inc. (Gainesville, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on December 6, 2019 after a review of 399 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Cardiovascular FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 880.6305 - the FDA cardiovascular device oversight 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 Cardiovascular review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.

Device Classification

Product Code OZW Ingestible Event Marker
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 880.6305
Definition To Provide Confirmation Of An Event Co-ingested Or Coincident With The Ingestible Component Of The Device. The Wearable Component Of The Device Incorporates Wireless Communication To Display The Event And Other Information On A General Computing Device
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 Cardiovascular devices follow this clearance model.
