The Hazard
All Medtronic MiniMed infusion pumps in the Paradigm series, 600 series and BLE 700 series can deliver insulin in error when the pump height relative to the infusion site changes. Elevation can cause insulin over-delivery. Lowering the pump can cause insulin under-delivery. Over-delivery risks include severe hypoglycemia, altered mental status, seizures, coma and death. Under-delivery risks include severe hyperglycemia, dehydration, diabetic ketoacidosis and death.
