ABSTRACT
The use of the US Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) to analyze adverse events linked to medical devices has grown in recent years. MAUDE facilitates post-market surveillance, contributing to the assessment of device performance and the identification of potential safety concerns. The database is instrumental not only for mandatory reporters such as manufacturers and healthcare facilities but also offers a platform for voluntary submissions from clinicians and patients, thus widening the scope of data collection. While the database offers valuable data, there are important limitations that must be understood in order to encourage appropriate interpretation of findings. This commentary highlights the major advantages and disadvantages of the MAUDE database, as well as describes possible areas for improvement in adverse event reporting.
