Unomedical is actively seeking further information.Presently we do not know cause of death, date of death or whether the infusion sets may possibly be causally involved or not.We do hope to provide a follow-up mdr within the a months' time.New - 15-may-2018: new info is date of death is (b)(6) and that the patient was an adult.Return of the used device has been requested but has not arrived at our testing facility.If we receive the set we will investigate it and supply fda with a further follow-up emdr.Helpdesk staff informs that the notes suggested that the coroner did not do an autopsy and there was no actual proof of hypoglycemia, but he believed that hypoglycemia might have been involved.Thus, it remains unknown if the patient experienced any malfunction with the infusion set.Likewise, it is uncertain whether an episode of hypoglycemia actually occurred prior to death.
