FDA Device API
Provides access to FDA data on medical devices marketed in the United States, including adverse event reports, product classifications, 510(k) clearances, and premarket approvals. Also covers device recalls, unique device identifiers, establishment registrations, and COVID-19 serology test performance data.

Tutorials
- Getting Started with FDA Device API — I can query FDA's open device database for medical device clearances (510k, PMA), adverse events, recalls, and classifications — no authentication required, but you'll need to construct Lucene-style search queries and watch for inconsistent date formats.
Skills
- Search 510k.json — I can search FDA 510(k) medical device clearance records by device name, applicant, or K-number — no auth required, but queries use Lucene syntax and date formats vary across endpoints.
- Search event.json — I can search FDA medical device adverse event reports by device name, brand, or event type — no authentication required, but queries use Lucene syntax and dates are in YYYYMMDD format.
- Search fda device recalls — I can search FDA device recalls by product description, firm, or reason — no auth required, but queries use Lucene syntax so phrase searches need quotes.
