510(k) Predicate Finder
Find potential predicate devices for your 510(k) submission. Enter a K-number to find all clearances with the same product code, a three-letter product code to browse clearances directly, or search by device name.
Pulmonary Hypertension Machine Learning-Based Notification Software
Cardiovascular
Pulmonary hypertension machine learning-based notification software is a cardiovascular software device that employs machine learning techniques to suggest the likelihood of pulmonary hypertension in a patient, intended to prompt further referral or diagnostic follow-up rather than to provide a definitive diagnosis. It is classified as FDA Class II (510(k) required) under regulation 870.2380 in the Cardiovascular specialty, with product code SAT. The device is not an implant and does not support life-sustaining functions.

A predicate device is a legally marketed device that a new 510(k) applicant uses to demonstrate substantial equivalence. The FDA's 510(k) pathway requires manufacturers to show that their device has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics as one or more predicate devices already cleared for commercial distribution.
Finding the right predicate is a critical step in 510(k) strategy. Manufacturers typically search for cleared devices with the same FDA product code, which groups devices by their intended use and regulatory classification. This tool helps you identify potential predicates by browsing all clearances within a product code.
Note that predicate devices must be legally marketed — they cannot be devices that were cleared but never commercialized, or devices subject to a mandatory recall. The determination of substantial equivalence considers intended use, technological characteristics, and performance data.
