K821821 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the PERCUTANEOUS TRACHEOSTOMY DEVICE.
Submitted by Frederic J. Toye, M.D. (Walker, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on July 19, 1982 after a review of 27 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.
This device falls under the Gastroenterology & Urology FDA review panel. 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.
