Tips for Best Results
  • Always search the library first — your predicate may already be indexed from a previous scan
  • Be specific in your intended use — include patient population, clinical setting, and device function for better matches
  • Aim for 65%+ relevance — matches above this threshold are strong predicate candidates worth reviewing
  • Run the deep scan once per category — newly discovered devices are permanently added to the library for all future searches
  • Validate with original submissions — use search results as a starting point, then review the full FDA 510(k) summaries
