FDA's MAUDE database holds 188 reports that name the brand "Lasso 2515 Nav Variable Catheter" (electrode recording catheter or electrode recording probe), received between June 2010 and December 2021; the manufacturer given most often on reports is Biosense Webster Juarez. Spellings of one product vary from report to report.
0 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, and none 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 (86.7%), injury (12.8%) and death (0.5%); across all catheter, electrode recording, or probe, electrode recording reports (product code DRF) death is recorded in 3.5% and malfunction in 48.8%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.
The device problems coded most often are break (26.1%), device contamination with chemical or other material (18.6%) and device displays incorrect message (13.3%). The patient problems coded most often are device embedded in tissue or plaque, pericardial effusion and cardiac tamponade. 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."
