Submitted by Anago, Inc. (Fort Worth, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on October 15, 1992 after a review of 321 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the General Hospital FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 878.4040 - the FDA general hospital device framework.
