1,291 medical device reports received by FDA name the brand "Quadra Allure MP CRT-P" (pulse generator pacemaker implantable with cardiac resynchronization crt-p); the manufacturer given most often on reports is St Jude Medical Crm-Sylmar; received from March 2017 to August 2026. Brand names are as the reporter or manufacturer wrote them, so one product can appear under several spellings.
205 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, close to the 191 of 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 (60.3%), injury (37.4%) and death (2.2%); across all pulse generator, pacemaker, implantable, with cardiac resynchronization (crt-p) reports (product code NKE) death is recorded in 1.9% and malfunction in 43.9%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.
The device problems coded most often are over-sensing (19.1%), pacing problem (8.9%) and failure to interrogate (5.3%). The patient problems coded most often are pocket erosion, discomfort and arrhythmia. 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."
