CHAPTER 7 Warnings and precautions
Warnings
The Physician should be completely familiar with the function of the Pump,
Catheter, and PPC prior to use. Patients should be provided a complete copy of
the Patient Manual and have demonstrated the ability to program the PPC,
recognize and respond to safety alarms, and take care of the device prior to
discharge.
Only special U-400 insulins specifically labeled for use with the Medtronic
MiniMed Insulin Infusion Systems may be used in the Medtronic MiniMed
2007D Implantable Insulin Pump. Use of other insulin types may cause damage
to the Pump mechanism resulting in impaired insulin delivery or Pump failure.
Any unauthorized changes or modifications made to any component of the
Medtronic MiniMed 2007D Implantable Insulin Pump System may prevent
effective use of that and other components.
Electrotherapy
The Medtronic MiniMed 2007D Implantable Insulin Pump System has been
tested in close proximity with electrosurgical, electrocoagulation, and cardiac
defibrillation medical equipment. Typical use of this type of device has not
affected the Pump. However, patients should be instructed to test Pump function
(e.g., self test) after such procedures to determine that the Pump and PPC are
operating properly. If the system is not performing correctly, contact Medtronic
MiniMed.
