Event-type mix vs corpus
Shares of FDA event_type codes on this device type, compared with the mean across 1,000 device types that have ≥100 MAUDE reports. Codes are report labels, not adjudicated causation.
- DEATH 0.0% corpus 1.5% · below corpus mean (-1.5 pp)
- INJ 3.0% corpus 30.4% · below corpus mean (-27.5 pp)
- MALF 96.5% corpus 64.5% · above corpus mean (+31.9 pp)
Lead product-problem code Device-Device Incompatibility is 28% of coded problems · Lead manufacturer DEPUY IRELAND - 9616671 accounts for 33% of manufacturer-tagged reports · Top event location I is 52% of location-tagged rows .
