FDA's MAUDE database holds 728 reports that name the brand "4k Uhd Lcd Monitor" (monitor), received between February 2021 and August 2026; the manufacturer given most often on reports is Shirakawa Olympus. Spellings of one product vary from report to report.

305 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, up 65% from 185 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 (99.7%) and injury (0.3%); across all laparoscope, general & plastic surgery reports (product code GCJ) death is recorded in 0.3% and malfunction in 90.1%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.

The device problems coded most often are no display/image (44.9%), failure to power up (18.5%) and poor quality image (11.5%). 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."
