K920580 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the TRANSDUCER, PRESSURE, CATHETER TIP. Classified as Transducer, Pressure, Catheter Tip (product code DXO), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Medamicus, Inc. (Minneapolis, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 7, 1993 after a review of 332 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Cardiovascular FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 870.2870 - the FDA cardiovascular device oversight 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 Cardiovascular review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.

DXO Device Classification - Class 2, Special Controls

Product Code DXO Transducer, Pressure, Catheter Tip
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 870.2870
What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. This pathway does not require clinical trials - it relies on engineering equivalence and performance data. Most Cardiovascular devices follow this clearance model.
