276 medical device reports received by FDA name the brand "Compella Bariatric Bed" (bariatric bed); the manufacturer given most often on reports is Baxter Healthcare; received from October 2017 to August 2026. Brand names are as the reporter or manufacturer wrote them, so one product can appear under several spellings.
152 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, up 28% from 119 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 (98.9%), injury (0.7%) and death (0.4%); across all bariatric bed reports (product code OSI) death is recorded in 0.7% and malfunction in 93.9%.

The device problems coded most often are material split, cut or torn (59.1%), activation problem (30.1%) and unintended movement (4%). The patient problems coded most often are apnea and cardiac arrest. 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."
