Submitted by Stephens Scientific (Mchenry, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on August 12, 1983 after a review of 50 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Hematology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 864.4010 - the FDA hematology device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.
