Submitted by Salter Labs (Mchenry, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 3, 1978 after a review of 53 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Anesthesiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 868.5600 - the FDA anesthesiology and respiratory device framework.
