The device has not been returned/received to date.If the device is received, a supplemental report will be submitted with the investigation results.We are unable to confirm the bent cannula or to determine if it could have contributed to the reported 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 confirming the blue soft cannula is inspected for any damage.

The received device had the cannula assembly fully deployed.Inspection of the soft cannula did not find it bent, kinked, or damaged.The download data from the pod contained no timeouts, drive stalls, or hazard alarms, indicating that there was no struggle to deliver insulin.The investigation found no evidence of any damage or manufacturing deficiencies that would result in fluid failing to flow through the complete fluid path.
