FDA's MAUDE database holds 1,922 reports that name the brand "Servo-i Base Unit" (ventilator continuous facility use), received between February 2021 and August 2026; the manufacturer given most often on reports is Maquet Critical Care. Spellings of one product vary from report to report.

607 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, down 25% from 810 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 (97.8%), injury (1.6%) and death (0.6%); 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 failure of device to self-test (43.4%), output problem (36.4%) and infusion or flow problem (7.1%). The patient problems coded most often are low oxygen saturation, bradycardia and hydrocephalus. 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."

Shares are of reports, not of devices in use. 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."
