How this list is built
We counted FDA 510(k) clearances (substantially equivalent decisions) with a decision date from 1 November 2025 to 31 October 2026 assigned to the general hospital review panel; De Novo grants are not counted. Clearances held by subsidiaries and under name variants are merged into the parent company ("Icu Medical, Inc." and "ICU Medical" are counted as ICU Medical), and government bodies, hospitals and universities are left out. Each company is placed in the country of its headquarters, or of its parent company after merging, so a US subsidiary of a German group counts for Germany. Companies with the same count share a rank, and all companies tied at the last place are shown.
Every position is set by the data alone, by the same rules for every company. Spotted something to update? Write to info@stratummarketresearch.com with the list and the line, and we correct it within two working days.
