How long does FDA review take for GXY?

The median FDA review time for GXY is 90 days, measured across the 439 most recent decisions with both a received date and a decision date.

Are there recalls in GXY?

openFDA lists 20 recall records against product code GXY. A recall record covers one firm's corrective action and may span many device lots.

  • Z-0203-2024Open, ClassifiedCoapt LLC

    Patient may experience minor burn or blistering if device is exposed to direct sunlight and/or warm temperatures for over 12 hours or battery is damaged.

    Facility Temperature excursions (from June 2021-August 2021) prior to delivery; exposure to higher temperatures may have impacted product effectiveness. All lots received between 06/01/21-9/30/21.

  • Z-1091-2022Open, ClassifiedNeuralynx, Inc.

    Atlas Stim Headbox (ASHB) was delivered to US customers under a premise that the device had an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) and was for research use only, but the manufacturer does not have an approved IDE by the FDA. The product has not undergone electrical safety testing and has not received regulatory clearance.

  • Z-1583-2014TerminatedMedtronic Navigation, Inc.

    Medtronic Navigation is recalling certain Medtronic single-use, disposable devices because there was not sufficient control to assure that returned, unused devices were appropriately examined for product and/or package damage to ensure sterility.

Showing the 5 most recently initiated of 20. 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 GXY?

MAUDE holds 145 adverse-event reports naming product code GXY, 46 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 GXY unusual?

Every month with enough history behind it falls inside GXY's own expected range. Nothing here is unusual for this code.

20 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 GXY.

"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 GXY?

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.
