Massachusetts, which is home to many medical device startups as well as Boston Scientific. produced three PMAs in the last two years.

They include Anika Therapeutics' hyaluronate-based osteoarthritis therapy Monovisc. In direct contrast to the fastest PMA of 2014 - Medtronic's CoreValve which took 5 months to approve and whose approval occurred six months before expected - Anika Therapeutics' had to wait four years to see an approval for Monovisc. The device had been rejecte twice before.
