The Disetronic H-Tron Insulin Pumps have been linked to Hypoglycemia and Hyperglycemia. In July 2003 Disetronic announced it would stop selling its H-Tron v100 and H-Tron plus v100 insulin pumps, after the FDA found safety violations at the company's manufacturing facility. The FDA found several problems with these insulin pumps including: water ingress, cracks in the case, and short lived batteries.
H-Tron insulin pumps that have any of these defects can lead to water entering the pump which can result in the unintended delivery of a bolus, which can cause severe health complications including hyperglycemic and hypoglycemic effects. Symptoms of Hypoglycemia include: dizziness, shakiness, sweating, hunger, seizure, headache, confusion, moodiness and crying. Symptoms of Hyperglycemia include: frequent urination, high blood sugar, high levels of sugar in urine and increased thirst.
