ChatPPG interpretation

A 510(k) decision of "substantially equivalent" means FDA found the device as safe and effective as a legally marketed predicate. FDA's word for this is cleared, not approved. The clearance covers the device and indications in this submission; it does not extend to other features or versions of the same product that were not part of it. See FDA cleared vs approved.
