What a report is

A report is not proof that the device was the cause of the event.

FDA says:

Adverse event reports submitted to FDA do not undergo extensive validation or verification. Therefore, a causal relationship cannot be established between product and reactions listed in a report. While a suspected relationship may exist, it is not medically validated and should not be the sole source of information for clinical decision making or other assumptions about the safety or efficacy of a product. Additionally, it is important to remember that adverse event reports represent a small percentage of total usage numbers of a product. Common products may have a higher number of adverse events due to the higher total number of people using the product.

FDA also says:

Although MDRs are a valuable source of information, this passive surveillance system has limitations, including the potential submission of incomplete, inaccurate, untimely, unverified, or biased data. In addition, the incidence or prevalence of an event cannot be determined from this reporting system alone due to potential under-reporting of events and lack of information about frequency of device use.

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.

Do not rely on openFDA to make decisions regarding medical care. While we make every effort to ensure that data is accurate, you should assume all results are unvalidated.

Reports on file

From February 2008 to August 2026, FDA received 2,625 medical device reports that give Teleflex as the manufacturer. A manufacturer name is as written on the report, so a subsidiary or a different spelling can be a separate name.

FDA received 94 reports in the 12 months to September 2026 and 62 in the 12 months before. FDA releases MAUDE data every month. Reports can arrive months after an event, so the newest months grow in later releases.

Of the 3,444,740 device reports that FDA received in the 12 months to September 2026, 94 (under 0.1%) give Teleflex as the manufacturer. Manufacturer reports were 67.9% of the reports that name this manufacturer and 94.9% of all device reports.

The number of people who use the product is not in the data. A count is not a rate.

Why manufacturers report

FDA says:

Mandatory reporters (that is, manufacturers, device user facilities, and importers) are required to submit to the FDA certain types of reports for adverse events and product problems about medical devices.

Where the data come from

The counts come from the openFDA Device Adverse Event (MAUDE) bulk files, release of 23 Oct 2026. The files have the reports that FDA received through 30 Sep 2026. Brand names, generic names and manufacturer names are as written on the reports. The names of the product codes come from the device classification of FDA.

The site removes company suffixes (Inc., LLC, GmbH and similar) before it counts a manufacturer name. A name that reads as a person and not as an organisation is not published. The site does not publish a report narrative, a lot number, a detail of a patient or the identity of a reporter. The record of FDA is the authority. See how the site counts reports, the data sources and the corrections page.

Questions

Does a large count say something about the manufacturer?

Not by itself. FDA says:

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.

What event types do the reports record?

Death (14), injury (123), malfunction (2,474) and other (3). The event type is the classification that the reporter gave. FDA does not verify it.

Why can one company have more than one page?

The manufacturer field is free text on the report. This page counts the 2,625 reports with the name Teleflex after the site removes company suffixes. A subsidiary, a plant or a different spelling is a separate name.
