Re: [IP] Re: Pump Suspended Itself! Annabella Lewis - insulin-pumpers-digest V11 #929
We have my son on a Animas 2020, and had this happen to us as well several
times last year...
Animas says that the pump runs over 300 safety checks a min and that is what
shut the pump down. However they did end up swapping that pump out for a
newer one and it has never happened again.
