K821799 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the FITKIT I CHECKUP KIT. Classified as Diazonium Colorimetry, Urobilinogen (urinary, Non-quant.) (product code CDM), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Patton, Boggs & Blow (Mchenry, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on August 16, 1983 after a review of 424 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1785 - 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: High-complexity regulatory submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. The extended review timeline suggests the FDA required additional documentation before confirming substantial equivalence - a pattern common in complex or first-of-kind Chemistry submissions.
