Within those species, Unknown (50), Dog (unknown) (1) appear most often — though breed popularity and ownership density shape these counts as much as any drug-specific sensitivity. This distribution matters because the same active ingredient can behave very differently across body sizes, ages, and species physiology.

The most commonly reported clinical signs associated with Device: Endotracheal Tube are Lack of efficacy, medical device (16), Device failure (16), Device Defective NOS (15), Product Defect, General (11). Of the 3 reports with a coded outcome, Died is the leading category at 66.7%. Because FDA adverse event data describes correlation rather than causation, these figures are best used to frame informed questions with a veterinarian and to compare reporting patterns across related products — not as a standalone safety verdict on Device: Endotracheal Tube.
