K963935 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the OLYMPUS CRITICAL CARE MONITORING SYSTEM. Classified as Analyzer, Gas, Carbon-dioxide, Partial Pressure, Blood-phase, Indwelling (product code CCC), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Optical Sensors, Inc. (Eden Prairie, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 23, 1997 after a review of 114 days - within the typical 510(k) review window.

This device falls under the Anesthesiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 868.1150 - the FDA anesthesiology and respiratory 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. Standard predicate reliance. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Anesthesiology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
