K190798 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the LaborView™ LV1000 Wireless Electrode System. Classified as Uterine Electromyographic Monitor (product code OSP), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Obmedical Company (Gainesville, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on September 18, 2020 after a review of 540 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Obstetrics & Gynecology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 884.2720 - 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.
