About This Data

The FDA Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) database contains reports of adverse events involving medical devices. Reports are submitted by manufacturers, healthcare facilities, and patients.

Important: Report counts do not indicate a device is unsafe. Higher-use devices naturally generate more reports. Events may be reported by anyone and are not verified by the FDA. Use this data as one factor alongside clinical evidence when evaluating device safety.
