Brand names are as the reporter or manufacturer wrote them, so one product can appear under several spellings.

116 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, down 71% from 397 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%), injury (1.2%) and death (0.7%); across all ventilator, continuous, facility use reports (product code CBK) death is recorded in 1.1% and malfunction in 91.8%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.

The device problems coded most often are gas/air leak (19.6%), insufficient device problem information (11.7%) and complete loss of power (10.4%). The patient problems coded most often are low oxygen saturation, appropriate clinical signs, symptoms and conditions term/code not available 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."
