K800387 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the PULSE GENERATORS MODELS 657 & 677. Classified as Implantable Pacemaker Pulse-generator (product code DXY), Class III - Premarket Approval.

Submitted by Siemens Elema AB (Mchenry, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on May 2, 1980 after a review of 70 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Cardiovascular FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 870.3610 - 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.
