Product code JFY is FDA's classification for "Enzymatic method, creatinine" (clinical Chemistry panel), a class 2 device. 567 medical device reports carry this product code, 0% of the MAUDE database, from May 1997 to August 2026.
63 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, up 29% from 49 in the 12 months before. FDA releases MAUDE data monthly; reports can arrive months after an event, so the newest months grow in later releases. The event types recorded are malfunction (97.4%), injury (2.5%) and other (0.2%). 7 brand names with a page on this site carry this code; the brands table is ordered by report count for navigation only. FDA states that "MDR data alone cannot be used to establish rates of events, evaluate a change in event rates over time or compare event rates between devices. The number of reports cannot be interpreted or used in isolation to reach conclusions about the existence, severity, or frequency of problems associated with devices." It adds that the reporting system "has limitations, including the potential submission of incomplete, inaccurate, untimely, unverified, or biased data."

VITROS Chemistry Products CREA Slides (176), Dimension Clinical Chemistry System (33), Analytical P Module (6), Unicel Dxc 800 Pro Synchron Clinical Systems (4) and Cobas 6000 C501module (3). Widely used products collect more reports because more people use them.
Can the brands table be used to rank the devices?
No. FDA states that "MDR data alone cannot be used to establish rates of events, evaluate a change in event rates over time or compare event rates between devices. The number of reports cannot be interpreted or used in isolation to reach conclusions about the existence, severity, or frequency of problems associated with devices." It adds that the reporting system "has limitations, including the potential submission of incomplete, inaccurate, untimely, unverified, or biased data." Brands differ in how many are in use, how long they have been sold and how reports are collected.
Where this comes from. Counts are built from the openFDA Device Adverse Event (MAUDE) bulk export released 28 Sep 2026, which holds reports FDA received through 31 Aug 2026. Brand, generic and manufacturer names are as written on the reports; product code names come from FDA's device classification. No report narrative, lot number, patient detail or reporter identity is published. See the methodology and sources; FDA's record is authoritative, and corrections are handled within five working days.
