RECALLING FIRM/MANUFACTURER
Medtronic MiniMed, Northridge, CA, by letters on April 24, 2007. Firm initiated recall is ongoing.
REASON
Exposure to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has resulted in damage to the component that monitors and controls movement of the motor in the MiniMed Paradigm insulin infusion pump. Although there were alarms as a result of the damage, some users cleared these alarms and continued using the pump. Under such conditions, the pump will significantly over-deliver; potentially causing severe hypoglycemia.
