K930113 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the KIRWAN IRRIGATION/ASPIRATION HANDPIECE. Classified as Cannula, Ophthalmic (product code HMX), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Kirwan Surgical Products, Inc. (Rockland, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on February 17, 1994 after a review of 402 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Ophthalmic FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 886.4350 - the FDA ophthalmic 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 Ophthalmic submissions.
