How long does FDA review take for DXC?

The median FDA review time for DXC is 94 days, measured across the 205 most recent decisions with both a received date and a decision date.

Review time here is decision date minus date received, as published by FDA. It is elapsed calendar time, not FDA review days — the two differ whenever the agency stops the clock for an additional information request.

Showing the 5 most recently initiated of 26. Recall class comes from openFDA's enforcement endpoint, which does not carry every recall — where it is missing, none is shown rather than guessed. Status is FDA's own wording; a terminated recall is a closed one, and the total spans the code's whole history, not just what is open today.

How many adverse events are reported for DXC?

MAUDE holds 1,511 adverse-event reports naming product code DXC, 270 of them received in the last 12 months.

MAUDE reports are submitted by manufacturers, importers, user facilities and the public. They are unverified, and a report is not proof that the device caused the event.

Is adverse-event reporting in DXC unusual?

2 months sit above DXC's own expected range: 1 May 2025, 1 March 2026.

21 months do not have a full, unbroken year of history before them, so no expected range is shown for those. Insufficient history is reported as insufficient rather than as zero: an empty baseline would turn a gap in our data into a spike. Method: ewma_alpha_0.3_sd_2 corpus_adjusted. Counts are divided by the corpus-wide volume for that month before comparison, so a rise across all of MAUDE is not reported as a rise in DXC.

"First time" means their first clearance in this product code, not their first ever — an established manufacturer entering a new category is exactly the movement worth knowing about.

What are the predicate devices in DXC?

FDA publishes no machine-readable predicate field, so no predicate chain is recorded for this code yet.

A predicate chain matters because a device inherits the safety history of what it was compared to. FDA publishes the chain only inside each 510(k) summary PDF, never as data — so where we have edges, they are read from those documents, and where we do not, we say so instead of showing an empty list.
