K970922 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the JOBST ATHROMBIC PUMP/SLEEVE. Classified as Sleeve, Limb, Compressible (product code JOW), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Jobst A Beiersdorf Co. (Charlotte, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on January 13, 1998 after a review of 307 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.
