The agency has also requested additional Shelf-Life testing for DeltaWave packaging. We are in the process of initiating accelerated Shelf-Life testing for the DeltaWave packaging. This request was a surprise to us, but we will promptly comply.


Remsleep CEO, Tom Wood, commented: “Investors want a 510(K) almost as much as Remsleep. We understand the frustration. Investors can be assured we will answer the questions from the agency, perform the additional tests required, and we will make every effort to gain approval for 510(K) submission (K233415) as soon as possible”.


Judy Strzepek comments: “Remsleep submitted our 510(K) on 10/10/2023. Remsleep received feedback from FDA with a request for additional information. This is not unusual. The type of information requested varies based on the type of product. CPAP device and the mask with accessories needed for sleep apnea therapy is a class II device that requires extensive data and information. So, the agency’s request for clarification of any part of the submission is not unexpected. We are working diligently to address any of FDA’s questions. We will do this as quickly as possible, while ensuring our response is thorough and complete.”... RemSleep's Press Release
