K810794 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the A-GENT UREA NITROGEN. Classified as Urease And Glutamic Dehydrogenase, Urea Nitrogen (product code CDQ), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Abbott Laboratories (Abbott Park, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on April 1, 1981 after a review of 9 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1770 - 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.
