K884742 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ESCORT NON-INVASIVE BLOOD PRESSURE OPTION. Classified as System, Measurement, Blood-pressure, Non-invasive (product code DXN), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Medical Data Electronics (Arleta, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on February 2, 1989 after a review of 80 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Cardiovascular FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 870.1130 - 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: Fast-track predicate clearance. Standard predicate reliance. The short review cycle indicates strong predicate alignment - the FDA found sufficient equivalence without extended technical review.
