Reports & Research
Quarterly signal intelligence reports, academic research, and analysis covering cardiac device safety trends from FDA MAUDE data.
Quarterly Reports
Each quarter, we analyze FDA MAUDE adverse event data across 32 cardiac device categories using 6 statistical detection methods. Reports cover signal spikes, emerging trends, category comparisons, and failure mode clustering.

Adverse Event Landscape of Pulsed Field Ablation Catheters: A Computational Review of FDA MAUDE Post-Market Surveillance Data
Matthew W. Segar, Kaleb D. Lambeth, Shyon Parsa, Mehdi Razavi
A keyword-based NLP pipeline applied to 6,930 MAUDE reports across all four FDA-cleared pulsed field ablation systems. PFA-specific physiologic events (coronary spasm/STEMI, hemolysis/AKI, phrenic nerve palsy) formed a safety phenotype distinct from device malfunction.
