Hazard
11 recalls in our database tag this hazard, drawn from FDA, USDA FSIS, CPSC, and NHTSA source notices.
Of the 11 diabetic ketoacidosis recalls we have scored against our rubric, 2 (18%) are Critical — deaths or serious injuries reported, or the agency’s own highest classification — and 3 (27%) are Severe.
Hazard tags are short, machine-readable labels we attach to every recall to make cross-cutting queries possible — “all diabetic ketoacidosis recalls regardless of agency”, “all listeria recalls in California”, “all airbag recalls in 2025”. The tags are extracted from each recall’s source text during the LLM rewrite step and validated against a fixed schema.
A recall can carry multiple tags — a Listeria recall might also be tagged ready-to-eat and undeclared-allergen. Use the full-text search if you want to combine hazard tags with brand or category filters.
Medtronic is recalling seven MiniMed 670G insulin pumps because chemical cleaning may have damaged the devices, risking incorrect insulin delivery.
Insulet Corporation is recalling Omnipod DASH Pods worldwide due to external soft cannula damage during manufacturing that can cause insulin to leak around the pod instead of being delivered. This may lead to high blood glucose levels and, in severe cases, diabetic ketoacidosis or death.
Medtronic recalled MiniMed insulin pumps due to abnormal delivery caused by air pressure changes during airplane flights. The defect can cause severe hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia, potentially leading to seizure, coma, or death.
Medtronic is recalling MiniMed insulin pumps that malfunction during airplane takeoff and landing due to air pressure changes. The defect can cause abnormal insulin delivery, leading to severe hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, seizure, coma, or death.
MiniMed insulin pumps may deliver abnormal insulin doses during aircraft takeoff and landing due to air pressure changes, risking severe blood sugar fluctuations, seizures, and potentially fatal complications.
Medtronic MiniMed insulin pumps can deliver abnormal insulin doses during air pressure changes in airplane travel, risking severe hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia and serious complications.
Unomedical recalls 3,362 units of VariSoft infusion sets due to connector damage causing premature disconnection and missed insulin doses, risking dangerous elevation of blood glucose and ketone levels.
Unomedical is recalling 8,028 VariSoft infusion sets due to a manufacturing defect that makes the connector prone to unintended disconnection, potentially leading to missed insulin doses and serious blood glucose complications.
Tandem Diabetes Care is recalling approximately 8,399 t:slim X2 insulin pumps due to software malfunctions that may affect blood sugar control. A software update is available to resolve the issues.
Medtronic MiniMed insulin pumps may be used without programmed basal rates, causing insulin under-delivery and potentially severe high blood sugar. Patients must configure and save basal settings before use, but labeling doesn't clearly explain this requirement.
Medtronic MiniMed is recalling Silhouette and Sure-T infusion sets because tubing may detach, interrupting insulin delivery without an alarm.
