73 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, up 170% from 27 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 (81.2%), death (10.7%) and injury (7.7%); across all monitor, physiological, patient(with arrhythmia detection or alarms) reports (product code MHX) death is recorded in 5.9% and malfunction in 82.1%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.
The device problems coded most often are no audible alarm (14.6%), incorrect measurement (14.2%) and defective alarm (9.2%). The patient problems coded most often are death, low oxygen saturation and cyanosis. 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."

Brand, generic and manufacturer names are as written on the reports; product code names come from FDA's device classification. A report counts here when any device it lists carries this brand name after punctuation and capitalisation are normalised.
