FDA's MAUDE database holds 775 reports that name the brand "CD HORIZON SOLERA VOYAGER Spinal System" (thoracolumbosacral pedicle screw system), received between February 2016 and August 2026; the manufacturer given most often on reports is Medtronic Sofamor Danek USA. Spellings of one product vary from report to report.

216 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, close to the 225 of 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 (76.1%), injury (23.7%) and death (0.1%); across all thoracolumbosacral pedicle screw system reports (product code NKB) death is recorded in 0.3% and malfunction in 41.2%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.

The device problems coded most often are break (36.4%), material twisted/bent (23.9%) and material deformation (8.4%). The patient problems coded most often are pain, device embedded in tissue or plaque and numbness. 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."
