K982950 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the FINE WIRE ELECTRODE MMODEL NUMBERS 221-14-730, 221-24-730, 221-14-550, 221-24.... Classified as Electrode, Needle, Diagnostic Electromyograph (product code IKT), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Chalgren Enterprises, Inc. (Gilroy, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on June 22, 1999 after a review of 305 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Neurology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 890.1385 - 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.
