K942884 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the COAGUCHEK SYSTEM. Classified as Test, Time, Prothrombin (product code GJS), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Boehringer Mannheim Corp. (Indianapolis, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on May 11, 1995 after a review of 328 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Hematology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 864.7750 - the FDA hematology device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.
