He has reported the problem to the AEMPS and has sent warning notes to professionals and patients.
Roche Diabetes has informed the Spanish Agency for Medicines and Health Products (AEMPS) that it has detected some leaky insulin cartridges in its Insulin Bombas ACCU-CHECK INSIGHT.
For this reason, the manufacturer is reinforcing the instructions on these devices to reduce the risk of insulin leaks after changing the preloaded cartridge.Roche Diabetes is sending warning notes to health centers and patients who have the affected product in Spain, to warn of the problem detected.
The Swiss company recommends to health professionals that, if they have delivered insulin bombs of the ACCU-Chek Insight range to patients, contact them to deliver a copy of the company's notice note, inform them of the problem detected and ofThe instructions for the correct handling of the pump and the change of the preloaded cartridges.
On the other hand, it asks patients to use this device to follow “the use instructions that accompany the pump and those indicated in the letter for patients, paying special attention to the instructions for the change of the preloaded insulin cartridge”.
This is the reliability and the magnificent advances that sell us about diabetes treatments.With a statement they already fulfill and all arranged, when for me it is a negligence of the book since the health of people is endangered and what remains only in an act communicated or notice, it should be a withdrawal from the market and restitution to the patientsof another identical treatment, in addition to compensating public health for breach and damage.Concessionaires are made for millions of euros for your product to be offered, implant and diagnose patients and are a watchmaking bomb on which a person's health depends.I better give it shame and they will have to pay a good fine.
