Item 8.01 Other Events.

 

On April 1, 2016, IRADIMED CORPORATION (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it had received a letter dated March 23, 2016 via email that its 510(k) application was denied with a finding of non-substantial equivalence.  This finding was due to a lack of human factors data demonstrating that its Dose Errors Reduction System (DERS) was adequately validated and that it may resubmit a new 510(k) application with data showing our infusion pump to be substantially equivalent to similar devices in the market.  Specifically, the agency stated that two of fifty-six test subjects in the Company’s human factors tests unintentionally bypassed the DERS feature, thus avoiding the DERS hard dose limits that healthcare institutions can program into the Company’s MRI compatible MRidium 3860+ infusion pumps. The Company intends to appeal this determination to a higher level within the agency. The Company anticipates submitting its appeal to the FDA by April 23, 2016.

 

The Company also announced that it will release its first quarter 2016 financial results before the market opens on Friday April 29th. The Company will also host a conference call the same day beginning at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss those results and to answer questions.

 

The full text of the press release is included in Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
