| Issue: | Update 20/05/24:The manufacturer has previously reached out to patients about a potential issue with the battery cap on the MiniMed™ 600 series and MiniMed™ 700 series insulin pumps and provided actions they should take. The manufacturer has now have developed a new battery cap for these pumps, which addresses the potential issues with the previous battery cap (model ACC-1527). The battery cap on the pump consists of a plastic cap and a metal contact that work together with the AA battery to power the pump. The metal contact should be held in place by three raised, round, black, plastic dots. If the metal contact becomes loose or falls off from the battery cap, it can result in an incomplete battery connection, leading to no power source to the pump. When the pump detects no power source, an "Insert battery" alarm will occur, and insulin delivery will immediately stop. After 10 minutes, the alarm sound may increase to a siren, and the pump will turn off. |
