About these reports

Each monthly report covers all FDA 510(k) clearances issued in that calendar month. Data is sourced from the FDA 510(k) public files, published on the 5th of each month and in the public domain (17 U.S.C. § 105).

Reports include clearance counts by specialty, average review times, month-over-month comparisons, and the most active manufacturers. Only cleared decisions are counted (SESE, SESK, SESU, SEKD, SESP, SESD, ST, SN).
