K963208 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the NERVEPACE(R) NERVE CONDUCTION VIEWSCOPE (200VS). Classified as Device, Nerve Conduction Velocity Measurement (product code JXE), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Neurotron Medical (Lawrenceville, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on July 14, 1997 after a review of 332 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Neurology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 882.1550 - the FDA neurology 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 Neurology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.

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 Neurology devices follow this clearance model.
