K926424 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the CORTICAL SURF EPILEPSY ELECT DEPTH ELEC EPILEP MON. Classified as Electrode, Cortical (product code GYC), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Radionics, Inc. (Burlington, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on November 19, 1993 after a review of 331 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Neurology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 882.1310 - the FDA neurology 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: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Neurology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.

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 Neurology devices follow this clearance model.
