K924523 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the HYS-SURGIFLATOR. Classified as Insufflator, Hysteroscopic (product code HIG), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by W.O.M. World of Medicine GmbH (Tucson, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on April 11, 1995 after a review of 945 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Obstetrics & Gynecology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 884.1700 - the FDA obstetrics and gynecology 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 Obstetrics & Gynecology submissions.
