K953252 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the DISPOSABLE SCALP VEIN INFUSION SET. Classified as Catheter, Intravascular, Therapeutic, Short-term Less Than 30 Days (product code FOZ), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Myco Medical Supplies, Inc. (Raleigh, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on November 26, 1996 after a review of 503 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the General Hospital FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 880.5200 - the FDA general hospital 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: 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 General Hospital submissions.
