  Omnipod DASH Pod. Includes the below Model/REF Numbers: 1. POD-BLE-I1-525 (5-Pack), POD-BLE-I1-520 (Single Pod). 2. POD-BLE-I1-529 (10-Pack), POD-BLE-I1-520 (Single Pod). 3. BLE-I1-529 (10-Pack), BLE-I1-520 (Single Pod). 4. BLE-C1-529 (10-Pack), BLE-C1-520 (Single Pod).

  External soft cannula damage during manufacturing that results in insulin leaking around the Pod instead of being delivered to the user regardless of basal or bolus delivery. The primary failure mode is pump under-delivery due to loss of insulin to an external leak. If insulin is not delivered properly, users may experience high blood glucose levels due to under-delivery of insulin. In the most severe cases, prolonged and persistent high blood glucose levels can lead to diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), hyperglycemic hyperosmolar syndrome (HHS), or even death.

  Paradigm Insulin Pump (MMT-712, MMT-715)

  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.

  Paradigm REF: MMT-712 and MMT-715

  All Medtronic MiniMed pumps (Paradigm series, Minimed 530G, 6XX series, and 7XX series) were found to have the potential for abnormal insulin delivery due to changes in air pressure, which can be found during airplane take-off or landing. An unexpected additional dose of insulin, which can occur during take-off, can result in severe hypoglycemia, altered mental status, seizure, coma, or death. An unexpected under-delivery of insulin, which can occur during landing, can result in severe hyperglycemia, dehydration, diabetic ketoacidosis, or death. During a delivery accuracy dry run testing of the 780G NGP infusion pump under dynamic pressure conditions, the firm observed that when air pressure decreased during take-off simulation, on average 0.569U more insulin was delivered in 15 minutes than the expected delivery volume at ambient pressure at 1 U/hr delivery rate; when air pressure increased during landing simulation, on average 0.537 U less insulin was delivered in 25 minutes than the expected delivery volume at ambient pressure at 1 U/hr delivery rate. The firm also observed that the mechanisms causing the variations in delivery volumes are independent of the delivery rate.

  18239: ASM Omnipod Dash PDM, insulin delivery system. PT-000010: Assembly, Dash Final PDM U100, mg/dL PT-000011: Assembly, Dash Final PDM U100, mmol/L PT-000030: Assembly, DASH PDM, Canada Remote Controller (Personal Diabetes Manager or PDM) associated with Insulin Pump (Pod) *The part numbers above may be incorporated into higher level assemblies such as DASH Starter Kits.

  The firm has become aware of PDM battery issues, including battery swelling, fluid leaking from the battery, and extreme overheating, which may pose a fire hazard. The firm has received a complaint alleging fire as a result of thermal energy from a DASH PDM.
