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.
Enema Kit
Gastroenterology, Urology
The Enema Kit (product code FCE) is a convenience kit containing supplies needed to administer an enema, typically for bowel cleansing or therapeutic purposes. It is an FDA Class 1 device (lowest risk) established under the May 20, 1997 Convenience Kits Interim Regulatory Guidance; kits meeting all criteria in that guidance are under enforcement discretion and do not require a 510(k). It is regulated under 21 CFR 876.5210 in the Gastroenterology and Urology specialty. This device is GMP exempt.

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.
