Medronic Recalls Insulin Infusion Sets
posted 05/19/04
WASHINGTON - More than 160,000 insulin infusion sets are being recalled because of problems that the California manufacturer says may have led 200 diabetics to be hospitalized for elevated blood-sugar levels.
Diabetics who use the Paradigm Quick-set Plus brand should contact Medtronic MiniMed immediately to exchange any unused infusion set for a free replacement, the company said Tuesday. Call toll-free 1-800-MINIMED, or check the Web site at www.mimimed.com/QSP.
