Medtronic MiniMed 780G Insulin Pumps Recalled for Chemical Damage Risk
Medtronic is recalling 257 MiniMed 780G insulin pumps distributed in Europe because chemical cleaning agents may have damaged the devices, risking incorrect insulin delivery.
What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.
Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a medical device where a defect could cause serious health consequences (hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, DKA), but the source text does not report any actual injuries or illnesses, fitting the 'High' severity criteria for risk-of-harm products without reported injury.
Plain-English summary
Medtronic MiniMed, Inc. is recalling 257 units of the MiniMed 780G Insulin Pump (Models MMT-1885CLW and MMT-1886CLW). The recall is due to reports that loaner insulin pumps may have been cleaned with chemically incompatible products. These cleaning agents could damage the pump case or keypad, allowing moisture to enter the device.
The potential damage to the pump's integrity could result in the over-delivery or under-delivery of insulin. This malfunction poses a risk of hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, or diabetic ketoacidosis for patients using the affected devices.
The affected units were distributed internationally to Germany, Denmark, Austria, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Italy, Belgium, Ireland, Switzerland, Sweden, and Northern Ireland. Patients using these specific loaner pumps should contact Medtronic or their healthcare provider for instructions on how to proceed.
