[Tulsa, OK] – [February 19, 2025] – Sway Medical, Inc., the company that created the Mobile Concussion Management category, is proud to announce that it has received FDA 510(k) clearance as a Computerized Cognitive Assessment Aid for Concussion under Section 882.1471. This clearance expands on Sway Medical’s previous FDA clearance for balance testing in head injuries, officially recognizing Sway as the first fully integrated tool that combines both cognitive and balance testing into one product for concussion management.
