FDA DevicesMiniMed 670G Insulin Pump (MMT-1760, MMT-1761, MMT-1762, MMT-1780, MMT-1781, MMT-1782)
MiniMed 670G Insulin Pump (MMT-1760, MMT-1761, MMT-1762, MMT-1780, MMT-1781, MMT-1782)
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.

Kits contain recalled Olympus biopsy valves. Olympus is investigating an increase in complaints associated with rubber fragment detachment in the slit of single use biopsy valves. Potential consequences associated with detachment of fragments from valve include foreign body in patient's tracheobronchial tree, which may require intervention for removal. Other potential consequences include inflammatory response, hypoxia, and prolongation of procedure.

Atellica CH Enzymatic Hemoglobin A1c (A1c_E); Siemens Material Number (SMN): 11097536;
A potential for depressed results for Atellica CH A1c_E when processing Atellica CH RCRP on the same analyzer. Customers processing A1c_E and RCRP on separate analyzers are not impacted by the recall. The frequency and magnitude of the negative bias and imprecision increase over time and are not consistent with the assay Instructions For Use (IFU). When this issue is present, Quality Control (QC) results demonstrate a negative trend and increased imprecision. The clinical impact of a negative (A1c_E) bias may lead to a delay in diagnosis for diabetes or lead to less-than-optimal treatment for existing diabetes.

Medline Kits containing ENFIT G-TUBE CONNECTOR 1. SKU DYKM2720 G/J TUBE CARE KIT 2. SKU ENFITDISCKIT ENFIT DISCHARGE KIT
Connectors were not manufactured to required dimensional specifications and may not form a proper seal with ENFit-style devices, which could lead to leakage. Leakage may result in delayed care and fluid loss. Additional consequences may also occur if user over-tightens the connector to stop the leakage, including additional clinical intervention, risk of infection, patient discomfort, and prolonged recovery process.
