K772203 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the VENTRICULAR LEADS. Classified as Permanent Pacemaker Electrode (product code DTB), Class III - Premarket Approval.

Submitted by Medtronic Vascular (Walker, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 11, 1978 after a review of 42 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Cardiovascular FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 870.3680 - the FDA cardiovascular device oversight 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. High regulatory complexity profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Cardiovascular review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
