Official product description
Insulin Pump/Model: MiniMed 620G/ MMT-1750 MiniMed 640G/ MMT-1711, MMT-1712, MMT-1751, MMT-1752
Why the product was recalled
Medtronic identified a cybersecurity vulnerability in the MiniMed 600 series Insulin Pump Systems associated with the communication protocol that could allow unauthorized access to the pump system. This unauthorized access could be used to deliver too much or too little insulin through delivery of an unintended insulin bolus or because insulin delivery is slowed or stopped, which could lead to hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia. The Remote Bolus feature on insulin pumps should be turned off to prevent the unauthorized access.
