K844445 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the REVIVE SYSTEM. Classified as Device, External Penile Rigidity (product code LKY), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Revive Systems Corp. (Washington, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on September 17, 1985 after a review of 305 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Gastroenterology & Urology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 876.5020 - the FDA gastroenterology and urology 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 Gastroenterology & Urology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
