Adverse Event Reportsfor External Defibrillators 2005 – 2010 Roberta Sullivan, BSN, MPH Nurse Consultant, MDR Analyst Office of Surveillance and Biometrics Division of Postmarket Surveillance Product Evaluation Branch I AED/DPS-12/15/10-RXS
Introduction • MedicalDevice Report (MDR) • Mandatory - Form 3500A • Voluntary MedWatch - Form 3500 • Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience (MAUDE) • http://www.fda.gov/Safety/MedWatch/HowToReport/default.htm • Or go to www.fda.gov -> navigate to “report a problem” online AED/DPS-12/15/10-RXS
MDRs: Received by FDA from Jan 1, 2005 to Jan 1, 2010 • Original Product Code LDD: dc-defibrillator, low-energy, (including paddles) Class II, 510K cleared * ExternalDefibrillator, rhythm not diagnosed nor shock delivered automatically • Subsequent Product code MKJ: automated or semi-automated external defibrillators Class III, 510K cleared, used by lay public *Automatic functions, AED AED/DPS-12/15/10-RXS
Patient problem codes • No patient involvement (59%) • No patient consequences (10%) • Unknown (9%) • Not applicable (5%) • No information (5%) • Death (4%) • No known impact to patient (3%) • Resuscitation (<1%) • Hospitalization required (<1%) • Cardiac Arrest (<1%) AED/DPS-12/15/10-RXS
Patient problem codes • No patient involvement (59%) • No patient consequences (10%) • Unknown (9%) • Not applicable (5%) • No information (5%) • Death (4%) • No known impact to patient (3%) • Resuscitation (<1%) • Hospitalization required (<1%) • Cardiac Arrest (<1%) AED/DPS-12/15/10-RXS
Device problem codes • Device displays error message (28%) • Failure to power up (15%) • Failure to charge, discharge or deliver (9%) • Loss of power (4%) • No display or display failure (4%) • Replace (4%) • Failure to run on AC/DC (3%) • Failure to shock or pace properly (3%) • Device issue (2%) • Device inoperable (2%) AED/DPS-12/15/10-RXS
If returned for analysis, the evaluation identified device failure 1 time out of 3 (Component/subassembly failure, electrical/mechanical problem, design, contamination, manufacturing, software) • If returned for analysis, the conclusion was “device failure directly caused event or was related to event” ~40% of time AED/DPS-12/15/10-RXS
What can MDR information be used for? • Provide a qualitative snapshot of adverse events for a specific device or device type • Signal detection • Unexpected events for a specific device type • Change in severity of expected events • User error/human factors issues • Regulatory actions • Premarket considerations • Public health communications AED/DPS-12/15/10-RXS
Example 1 • “Complaint alleged that while attempting to cardiovert a pt (age and gender unknown), the device inappropriately shut down. Complainant indicated that the patient subsequently expired”. AED/DPS-12/15/10-RXS
