K841401 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the SAT-1 OXIMETER/CARDIAC OUTPUT COMPUTER. Classified as Computer, Diagnostic, Pre-programmed, Single-function (product code DXG), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by American Edwards Laboratories (Walker, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 14, 1985 after a review of 286 days - an extended review cycle.

This device falls under the Cardiovascular FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 870.1435 - 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. Standard predicate reliance. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Cardiovascular review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
