K192933 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the Polyisoprene Powder Free, Black Colour Surgical Gloves. Classified as Surgeon's Gloves (product code KGO), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Emerson & Co. Srl (Genoa, IT). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 13, 2021 after a review of 454 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the General Hospital FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 878.4460 - the FDA general hospital 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: 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 General Hospital submissions.
