K924250 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the PLASTIC LOW PROFILE SUBCUTANEOUS PORT. Classified as Port & Catheter, Implanted, Subcutaneous, Intravascular (product code LJT), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Bard Access Systems, Inc. (Salt Lake City, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on October 4, 1993 after a review of 406 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the General Hospital FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 880.5965 - 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.
