K961441 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the TONOMETERED SLAINE BLOOD GAS CONTROL. Classified as Controls For Blood-gases, (assayed And Unassayed) (product code JJS), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Instrumentarium Corp. (Tewksbury, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on April 30, 1996 after a review of 15 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1660 - 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: Fast-track predicate clearance. Standard predicate reliance. The short review cycle indicates strong predicate alignment - the FDA found sufficient equivalence without extended technical review.
