K936115 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the CAT-600 PENILE PLETHYSMOGRAPH. Classified as Monitor, Penile Tumescence (product code LIL).

Submitted by Farrall Instruments, Inc. (Grand Island, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 10, 1995 after a review of 690 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Gastroenterology & Urology FDA review panel. 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 Gastroenterology & Urology submissions.
