K905775 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the SIEMENS ETCO2 CARTRIDGE. Classified as Analyzer, Gas, Carbon-dioxide, Gaseous-phase (product code CCK), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Siemens Medical Electronics (Danvers, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on March 11, 1991 after a review of 74 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Anesthesiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 868.1400 - the FDA anesthesiology and respiratory 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: Fast-track predicate clearance. Standard predicate reliance. The short review cycle indicates strong predicate alignment - the FDA found sufficient equivalence without extended technical review.
