How much was excluded during verification
Matching in this market runs against a bulk export compared locally, with verification performed at import time.
How to verify this yourself
Every market figure on this site is the result of **re-checking each manufacturer name record by record**, not a raw hit count from a registry search interface. Name search in these registries is generally a substring match: searching EUDAMED for "Edan" returns 1,933 records, of which 434 belong to HANEDAN in Turkey and 300 to TeDan Surgical in the United States — taking the raw count would overstate by more than 60 percent. We therefore require the distinctive token to appear as a whole word and demand a genuinely distinguishing shared token; generic words such as "medical" or "systems" never qualify on their own, and the similar names that were excluded are listed on each company page. Each market counts a different unit (the EU counts UDI-DI device records, the US counts listed device types, Canada and Brazil count valid registrations, Korea counts quality-system certifications), so figures cannot be summed or compared across markets. The full basis, official portals and query paths are at the methodology page.
