FDA's MAUDE database holds 534 reports that name the brand "EndoVive Standard PEG Kit" (tubes gastrointestinal and accessories), received between July 2008 and July 2026; the manufacturer given most often on reports is Boston Scientific - Spencer. Spellings of one product vary from report to report.

15 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, close to the 15 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 (56%), injury (41.9%) and death (2.1%); across all tubes, gastrointestinal (and accessories) reports (product code KNT) death is recorded in 2.4% and malfunction in 47%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.

The device problems coded most often are occlusion within device (11.4%), detachment of device or device component (9.9%) and break (8.2%). The patient problems coded most often are no patient involvement, pain and death. 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."
