K880303 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the POLYCORD II. Classified as Recorder, Magnetic Tape, Medical (product code DSH), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Technetics, Inc. (El Cajon, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on December 5, 1988 after a review of 315 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Cardiovascular FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 870.2800 - 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.
