K201049 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the FINDER G6PD. Classified as Glucose-6-phosphate Dehydrogenase (erythrocytic), Screening (product code JBF), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Baebies, Inc. (Morrisville, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on September 14, 2022 after a review of 876 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Hematology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 864.7360 - the FDA hematology 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 Hematology submissions.

What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. This pathway does not require clinical trials - it relies on engineering equivalence and performance data. Most Hematology devices follow this clearance model.
