K822306 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the BIO-BAND BANDAGES. Classified as Dressing, Wound, Drug (product code FRO).

Submitted by Robert Hirschfield. The FDA issued a Cleared decision on March 15, 1984 after a review of 594 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the General & Plastic Surgery 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: 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 General & Plastic Surgery submissions.
