K812725 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the MODEL 5867-12 BIPOLAR LOW-PROFILE LEAD. Classified as Electrode, Pacemaker, Temporary (product code LDF), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Medtronic Vascular (Walker, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on November 16, 1981 after a review of 49 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: Fast-track predicate clearance. Standard predicate reliance. The short review cycle indicates strong predicate alignment - the FDA found sufficient equivalence without extended technical review.
