K191296 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the Pointe Scientific Creatinine Kinase (CK) Reagent Set. Classified as Nad Reduction/nadh Oxidation, Cpk Or Isoenzymes (product code CGS), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Medtest DX (Lincoln Park, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on August 11, 2020 after a review of 455 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1215 - the FDA in vitro diagnostics and chemistry 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 Chemistry submissions.
