K945857 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the PROTEIN C DEFICIENT PLASMA. Classified as Plasma, Coagulation Factor Deficient (product code GJT), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by George King Bio-Medical, Inc. (Overland Park, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on October 20, 1995 after a review of 340 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Hematology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 864.7290 - 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.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Hematology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
