Find 7 companies that make catheters, from FDA device registrations
Any company that makes a medical device sold in the US registers its sites with the FDA and lists each device by product code. Searching those registrations finds the makers of a device directly, wherever they are, without guessing from company descriptions. Only sites that make or design the device are kept, so importers and contract sterilizers don't fill the list.

The sentence, and what the agent will do
Typed into Home. The plan came back in 7 seconds: "This agent pulls catheter makers from the FDA's medical device establishment registrations, keeping the 7 that fit. Each comes back with the standard company details so you can see who they are."
Then it asks where leads should go: an email campaign, HubSpot, Slack, or just the sheet. Here the answer was Just give me the sheet.

The plan, with what it costs
Finds up to 7 companies from FDA device filings. Researches each company's own site and public records: tech, socials, hiring and news. Reaches no one and sends nowhere: the results are yours to download or open in Google Sheets.
Each source is listed with its cost, and both are included. About 7 credits a run, and companies that don't make it aren't charged. Run once now starts it.

What each one is registered to make
Each row says the site's role and the device, by FDA product code. Canadian Hospital Specialties in Oakville, Ontario: manufacturer, LJS, a long-term intravascular therapeutic catheter. Acheron Instruments in Lahore, Pakistan: manufacturer, ENW, a nasopharyngeal catheter. Canyon Medical: manufacturer, GBO, a nephrostomy catheter.
Centerline Biomedical: manufacturer, DQY and DQX, percutaneous catheters and guide wires. Inquis Medical: manufacturer, QEZ and KRA, aspiration thrombectomy catheters. Imperative Care: manufacturer, QJP, a percutaneous neurovascular catheter. Filmecc makes catheter shafts and components, with trademarks for micro, occlusion, ablation and atherectomy catheters.
Sites registered only as complaint file holders, importers, relabelers or sterilizers are left out. Websites aren't in the FDA data, so each one is matched from the company's name.

Take it with you, or keep it running
Download CSV or open it in Google Sheets. The sheet isn't kept on our side, so it's yours to take.
Ask for more than 7, or pick an email campaign or HubSpot instead of the sheet and it finds the right person at each one. Create agent saves it, so you can run it again or put it on a schedule.
Questions
- Where does the device data come from?
- The FDA's medical device establishment registrations and listings: the sites that make, design or handle a device for the US market, and the devices each one lists by product code.
- Why are some registered companies left out?
- A registration can be for a site that only imports, relabels, sterilizes or keeps complaint files for a device. Only sites that make or design it are kept, so the list is the makers.
- Does searching the FDA registrations cost credits?
- No, the search is included. Credits are used for the sheet: 1 a company, so 7 companies cost 7 credits. Companies that don't make it aren't charged.
