K830016 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the VASCUTEK VASCULAR PROTHESIS VP1200K/50K. Classified as Prosthesis, Vascular Graft, Of 6mm And Greater Diameter (product code DSY), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Pacesetter Systems (Walker, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on December 21, 1983 after a review of 352 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Cardiovascular FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 870.3450 - 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: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Cardiovascular review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
