I'm an actor working out of town outside the US (appearing in "Angels in
America" in Vancouver, BC) -- and I would have never known about this without
the alert via this listserv.

I'm very impressed with how Roche/Disetronic is handling this. Their pump
support staff is top notch.

Many, many thanks for this posting and the community service it provides.

The company advices to place a new power pack into their insulin pump every
2 weeks until further notice; it is important that this 2-week period not be
extended. The company and their distributors will be supplying power packs
free of charge by UPS next-day shipment at 2-week intervals until corrective
actions have been implemented, and all users will receive a power pack
together with detailed instructions.
D-Tron Pump users are advised to check their blood glucose levels regularly
to ensure that they remain within acceptable ranges, and to closely monitor
their pumps to ensure adequate delivery of insulin.
