K943099 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the URINARY CATECHOLAMINE KIT. Classified as Chromatographic/fluorometric Method, Catecholamines (product code CHQ), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Bioanalytical Systems, Inc. (West Lafayette, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on October 7, 1994 after a review of 100 days - within the typical 510(k) review window.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1165 - the FDA in vitro diagnostics and chemistry 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. Standard predicate reliance. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Chemistry review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
