Submitted by Mcconnell Orthopedic (Dallas, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 13, 1989 after a review of 32 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Orthopedic FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 888.4540 - the FDA orthopedic device regulatory framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.
