How long does FDA review take for IPF?

The median FDA review time for IPF is 108 days, measured across the 548 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.

Are there recalls in IPF?

openFDA lists 7 recall records against product code IPF. A recall record covers one firm's corrective action and may span many device lots.

  • Z-0506-2024Open, ClassifiedLiberty Medical Solutions, LLC

    The instruction manuals that were included with the Multi-Mode Stimulators distributed from 2018 to 2023 did not contain all of the appropriate warnings and contraindications.

Showing the 5 most recently initiated of 7. 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 IPF?

MAUDE holds 25 adverse-event reports naming product code IPF, 9 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 IPF unusual?

IPF does not yet have twelve months of adverse-event history in our data, so there is no expected range to compare against. That is a gap in what we hold, not a statement about the device.

15 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.

"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 IPF?

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.

Who files 510(k)s in IPF?

2 companies in IPF file under more than one spelling. Resolving them to one identity — across all six datasets, not just this one — is what makes a joined count possible at all.
