t:slim X2 Insulin Pump with Dexcom G5 Mobile CGM, and t:slim X2 Insulin Pump with Basal-IQ Technology

Official recall recorded by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration.

The hazard

Insulin pumps may display unexpected fluctuation of the remaining battery life so ensure pump battery life does not fall below 25% remaining power. If the battery life drops to less than 5%, insulin delivery will continue for 30 minutes and then the pump will power off and insulin delivery will stop. If the battery reaches 1%, then insulin delivery will stop, which could lead to hyperglycemia.
