About the data
How to use a GUDID record
Use the primary device identifier to distinguish a specific version or model from similar products. Package identifiers may represent different packaging levels for the same device.
Compare the brand, model, catalog number, company, and product code together before treating two records as the same device.
GUDID identifies devices and labeling attributes. It does not by itself show that a device is FDA cleared, approved, currently marketed, or appropriate for a clinical use.
- What is GUDID?
- The Global Unique Device Identification Database contains device identification information submitted to FDA for devices with Unique Device Identifiers.
- What is the difference between a UDI and a device identifier?
- A UDI contains a device identifier (DI), which identifies the labeler and device version or model, plus production identifiers when required, such as lot, serial, or expiration information.
- Does a GUDID record mean FDA cleared or approved the device?
- No. GUDID is an identification database. Check the relevant 510(k), De Novo, PMA, or exemption record to confirm a marketing pathway.
