DXG Device Classification - Class 2, Special Controls

Product Code DXG Computer, Diagnostic, Pre-programmed, Single-function
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 870.1435
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 Cardiovascular devices follow this clearance model.
