Medtronic MiniMed 780G insulin pump loaner units recalled for potential moisture damage and insulin delivery failure
What this means
Some loaner MiniMed 780G insulin pumps were cleaned with chemically incompatible products that may have damaged the pump case or keypad. This damage could allow moisture to enter the pump, potentially causing it to deliver too much or too little insulin. These devices were distributed as loaners in Europe.
- If you have a MiniMed 780G loaner pump, check its serial number against the FDA recall notice
- Contact Medtronic or your healthcare provider immediately if your pump is on the recall list
- Do not continue using an affected loaner pump without speaking to your provider
- Monitor your blood sugar closely if you have been using one of these pumps
The agency's original wording
Loaner insulin pumps may have been cleaned with chemically incompatible products that could damage the pump case or keypad, allow moisture ingress, and result in insulin over- or under-delivery, potentially causing hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, or diabetic ketoacidosis.
