FDA's MAUDE database holds 218 reports that name the brand "Enroute Transcarotid Stent System" (enroute tss), received between June 2017 and March 2025; the manufacturer given most often on reports is Silk Road Medical. Spellings of one product vary from report to report.

0 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, against 25 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 (90.4%), malfunction (6.9%) and death (2.8%); across all stent, carotid reports (product code NIM) death is recorded in 8% and malfunction in 26.7%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.

The device problems coded most often are material deformation (6%), break (4.6%) and fracture (4.1%). The patient problems coded most often are thrombosis/thrombus, ischemia stroke and stroke/cva. 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."
