FDA's MAUDE database holds 1,254 reports that name the brand "Mynxgrip" (device hemostasis vascular), received between April 2012 and August 2026; the manufacturer given most often on reports is Cardinal Health Santa Clara. Spellings of one product vary from report to report.

422 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, up 18% from 357 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 (95.7%), injury (4%) and death (0.3%); across all device, hemostasis, vascular reports (product code MGB) death is recorded in 0.6% and malfunction in 16.4%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.

The device problems coded most often are failure to fire (24.2%), decrease in pressure (19.5%) and material rupture (18.8%). The patient problems coded most often are hematoma, pseudoaneurysm and obstruction/occlusion. 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."
