Reason for recall
External soft cannula damage during manufacturing that results in insulin leaking around the Pod instead of being delivered to the user regardless of basal or bolus delivery. The primary failure mode is pump under-delivery due to loss of insulin to an external leak. If insulin is not delivered properly, users may experience high blood glucose levels due to under-delivery of insulin. In the most severe cases, prolonged and persistent high blood glucose levels can lead to diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), hyperglycemic hyperosmolar syndrome (HHS), or even death.
