K810679 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the MS-303-OXYGEN REGULATOR SHIELD. Classified as Regulator, Pressure, Gas Cylinder (product code CAN), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Instrumentation Industries, Inc. (Mchenry, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on April 17, 1981 after a review of 35 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Anesthesiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 868.2700 - the FDA anesthesiology and respiratory 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: Fast-track predicate clearance. Standard predicate reliance. The short review cycle indicates strong predicate alignment - the FDA found sufficient equivalence without extended technical review.
