- FDA's record, not the maker's wording. Each status is read from FDA's own databases, by the device's model.
- Cleared is not approved. A 510(k) clearance means FDA accepted the device as substantially equivalent to one already on the market. None of the devices we score holds FDA approval.
- Registered or listed is not reviewed. A registration or listing involves no premarket review of the device.
