K925820 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ARTHRITIC HEAT WRAP. Classified as Pad, Heating, Powered (product code IRT), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Conair Corp. (Stamford, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on February 2, 1994 after a review of 442 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Physical Medicine FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 890.5740 - the FDA physical medicine 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 Physical Medicine submissions.
