You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. U.S. Food & Drug Administration 10903 New Hampshire Avenue Silver Spring, MD 20993 www.fda.gov {1} K260747 - Charlemagne Chua Page 2 Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download). Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR) (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, ISO 13485 clause 7.3 (Design controls), ISO 13485 clause 8.3 (Nonconforming product), ISO 13485 clause 8.5.2 (Corrective action), and ISO 13485 clause 8.5.3 (Preventative action). Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QMSR requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (ISO 13485 clause 7.3 and ISO 13485 clause 7.5) and document changes and approvals in the Medical Device File (ISO 13485 clause 4.2.3). Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reporting-combination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR) (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050. All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rule"). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.

PERFORMANCE ## 5.1 Summary of Non-Clinical Performance Testing Nihon Kohden conducted non-clinical bench performance testing as part of the design verification and validation activities. The YP-710T series (NIBP Cuffs) and YP-840T series (Disposable Cuffs) were evaluated for reprocessing & shelf-life, biocompatibility, and usability performance. The same test methods and specifications were used as for the predicate device, establishing equivalency with the predicate devices. These tests were performed according to the international and FDA-recognized consensus standards listed in Table 7.

SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE DISCUSSION The comparison of the YP-710T series (NIBP Cuffs) and YP-840T series (Disposable Cuffs) to its predicate device (SOFT-CUF, K120125 and the discussion of the key aspects are presented in the following sections. # 6.1 Discussion of Intended Use In comparing the Intended Use between the YP-710T series (NIBP Cuffs) and YP-840T series (Disposable Cuffs) and its predicate device, the Intended Use are the same. # 6.2 Discussion of Indications for Use In comparing the Indications for Use between the YP-710T series (NIBP Cuffs) and YP-840T series (Disposable Cuffs) and its predicate device, both are accessories noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) measuring systems. # 6.3 Discussion for Technological Characteristics The YP-710T series (NIBP Cuffs) and YP-840T series (Disposable Cuffs) and its predicate device have similar technological characteristics. # 6.4 Discussion for Design Characteristics There are slight differences between the YP-710T series (NIBP Cuffs) and YP-840T series (Disposable Cuffs) and the predicate as referenced. The differences are based on design changes to accommodate new design improvement and to ensure compliance with current applicable standards. The changes have been evaluated to ensure there is no impact on the safety and effectiveness of the YP-710T series (NIBP Cuffs) and YP-840T series (Disposable Cuffs). 06 MAR 2026 Page 9 of 10 K260747 {13} Traditional 510(k) – YP-710T Series, YP-840T Series 510(K) Summary ## 6.5 Discussion for Compatible Devices The YP-710T series (NIBP Cuffs) and YP-840T series (Disposable Cuffs) and predicate device require the device to be connected to noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) measurement systems. The subject device will be used with more Nihon Kohden noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) measurement systems that have received 510(k) clearance. ## 6.6 Discussion for Performance Specifications The YP-710T series (NIBP Cuffs) and YP-840T series (Disposable Cuffs) has been compared and evaluated using the same performance methods and testing criteria as the predicate. ## 7. CONCLUSION The results of the substantial equivalence assessment, taken together with non-clinical bench testing and validation demonstrate that the YP-710T series (NIBP Cuffs) and YP-840T series (Disposable Cuffs) do not raise concerns regarding their safety and effectiveness compared to their predicate device and operates in accordance with claimed indications for use.
