K914524 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the FLUID PUMP, CP #3. Classified as Accessories, Cleaning, For Endoscope (product code FEB), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by United States Endoscopy Group, Inc. (Mentor, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on March 9, 1994 after a review of 881 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the General Hospital FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 876.1500 - the FDA general hospital 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: High-complexity regulatory submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. The extended review timeline suggests the FDA required additional documentation before confirming substantial equivalence - a pattern common in complex or first-of-kind General Hospital submissions.
