239 medical device reports received by FDA name the brand "Comp Rvrs 25mm Bsplt Ha+adptr" (prosthesis shoulder); the manufacturer given most often on reports is Zimmer Biomet; received from January 2014 to July 2026. Brand names are as the reporter or manufacturer wrote them, so one product can appear under several spellings.

17 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, down 11% from 19 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 injury (97.1%) and malfunction (2.9%); across all prosthesis, shoulder, semi-constrained, metal/polymer cemented reports (product code KWS) death is recorded in 0.1% and malfunction in 10.9%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.

The device problems coded most often are detachment of device or device component (40.6%), device dislodged or dislocated (8.8%) and insufficient device problem information (7.9%). The patient problems coded most often are failure of implant, pain and joint dislocation. 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."
