How to read PMA search results
The base PMA number identifies the original application. A supplement number identifies a later change such as new labeling, manufacturing, design, or indications.
Review the decision code and approval-order statement together. A supplement approval applies to the change described in that record, not a new blanket approval of the device.
Use the official FDA PMA page to inspect approval orders, Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data, labeling, and supplement history before relying on a result.
- What is an FDA PMA?
- Premarket Approval is FDA’s scientific and regulatory review pathway for many Class III devices. An approved application permits marketing for the approved device and indications.
- Why are there multiple records for one PMA number?
- The PMA dataset includes supplements submitted after the original approval. Each supplement can cover a different design, labeling, manufacturing, or indication change.
- Does “approved” apply to every version of a product?
- No. Approval is tied to the application, device configuration, labeling, and indications described in the FDA record and supporting documents.
