How long does FDA review take for OVD?

The median FDA review time for OVD is 112 days, measured across the 202 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 OVD?

openFDA lists 36 recall records against product code OVD. A recall record covers one firm's corrective action and may span many device lots.

  • Z-2213-2026Open, ClassifiedNovapproach Spine, LLC

    Intervertebral body fusion system straight inserter failed to properly attach to affected cages, which may result in an inability to securely engage the implant with the inserter, which could lead to procedural delay and/or the need to select an alternative implant.

    Labeling contains claims that are not consistently present.

  • Z-1488-2025Open, ClassifiedStryker Spine

Showing the 5 most recently initiated of 36. 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 OVD?

MAUDE holds 199 adverse-event reports naming product code OVD, 36 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 OVD unusual?

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

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 OVD.

What are the predicate devices in OVD?

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.

2 companies in OVD 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.

Merges are measured against a hand-labelled sample and held above 98% precision; pairs the matcher is unsure of are queued for a person rather than merged. See DeviceSignal.
