Medtronic MiniMed infusion pumps — including the Paradigm series, MiniMed 600 series (e.g., 620G, 630G, 640G, 670G, 700G, 720G, 740G) and BLE 700 series (e.g., 770G, 780G) with the model numbers listed by the firm — are affected by the recall. The pumps can deliver unintended over‑ or under‑delivery of insulin when the pump is elevated or lowered relative to the infusion site because of gravitational effects on hydrostatic and hydrodynamic pressures, which can result in severe hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, diabetic ketoacidosis, seizure, coma, or death.

The hazard
All Medtronic MiniMed infusion pumps (Paradigm series, 600 series, and BLE 700 series) were found to be affected by unintended over- and under-delivery of insulin when the pump is elevated or lowered relative to the infusion site, respectively, because of changes in gravitational force impacting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic pressures. Insulin over-delivery, which can occur when the pump is elevated relative to the infusion site, can result in severe hypoglycemia, altered mental status, seizure, coma, or death. An under-delivery of insulin, which can occur at lowered pump height conditions relative to the infusion site, can result in severe hyperglycemia, dehydration, diabetic ketoacidosis, or death.
What to do
Don't stop taking a prescribed medicine without talking to your doctor or pharmacist first. For other products, stop using them and ask the pharmacist, seller or maker what to do.
