Class II · Ongoing

Class II FDA medical device recall by Medtronic MiniMed, Inc., initiated 2026-02-13. FDA's recall record names no specific 510(k) clearance for this event. Product: MiniMed 720G Insulin Pump (MMT-1809, MMT-1810, MMT-1859, MMT-1860, MMT-1867). Reason: All Medtronic MiniMed infusion pumps (Paradigm series, 600 series, and BLE 700 series) were found to be affected by unintended over- and under-delivery of insulin when the pump is elevated or lowered relative to the infusion site, respectively, because of changes in gravitational force impacting hydrostatic and hydrodynamic pressures. Insulin over-delivery, which can occur when the pump is elevated relative to the infusion site, can result in severe hypoglycemia, altered mental status, seizure, coma, or death. An under-delivery of insulin, which can occur at lowered pump height conditions relative to the infusion site, can result in severe hyperglycemia, dehydration, diabetic ketoacidosis, or death..
