K912139 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the MODEL 704. Classified as Device, Monitoring, Intracranial Pressure (product code GWM), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Ivy Biomedical Systems, Inc. (Branford, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on March 25, 1992 after a review of 316 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Neurology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 882.1620 - the FDA neurology 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 Neurology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
