K803186 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the NORMAL AND ELEVATED CONTROL FOR GLYCO.. Classified as Assay, Glycosylated Hemoglobin (product code LCP), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Applied Clinical Research Laboratories (Mchenry, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 21, 1981 after a review of 36 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 864.7470 - the FDA in vitro diagnostics and chemistry framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Fast-track predicate clearance. Standard predicate reliance. The short review cycle indicates strong predicate alignment - the FDA found sufficient equivalence without extended technical review.
