K883960 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the GIPHY MONITOR. Classified as Electrode, Ph, Stomach (product code FFT), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Vascular Technology Incorporated (Chelmsford, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on October 4, 1989 after a review of 379 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Gastroenterology & Urology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 876.1400 - 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.
