Manufacturer Narrative
|
According to the complainant the device will not be available for investigation because it was discarded.We are unable to determine if any product condition could have contributed to the reported er visit and hyperglycemia.It was reported that the cannula had dislodged from the infusion site.This condition could interrupt insulin delivery and contribute to hyperglycemia.Lot release records were reviewed and the product lot met all acceptance criteria.Specifically, a pod is paired to a pdm and put through simulated use testing including communicating with the pdm, deployment, delivering fluid, occlusion detection, and freedom from hazard alarms.
