K822689 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the PORTABLE MONITORING & SCREENING SPIROM.. Classified as Spirometer, Monitoring (w/wo Alarm) (product code BZK), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Boehringer Laboratories (Mchenry, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on July 12, 1983 after a review of 312 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Anesthesiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 868.1850 - the FDA anesthesiology and respiratory device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Anesthesiology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
