FDA's MAUDE database holds 316 reports that name the brand "Belt Clip" (insulin infusion pump / sensor augmented), received between December 2011 and August 2015; the manufacturer given most often on reports is Medtronic Minimed. Spellings of one product vary from report to report.

0 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, and none in the 12 months before. FDA releases MAUDE data monthly; reports can arrive months after an event, so the newest months grow in later releases. The event types recorded are injury (65.2%) and malfunction (34.8%); across all pump, infusion, insulin, to be used with invasive glucose sensor reports (product code OYC) death is recorded in 0.3% and malfunction in 85.5%.

The device problems coded most often are break (69%), device displays incorrect message (8.9%) and device operates differently than expected (5.4%). The patient problems coded most often are hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia and fall. FDA states that "MDR data alone cannot be used to establish rates of events, evaluate a change in event rates over time or compare event rates between devices. The number of reports cannot be interpreted or used in isolation to reach conclusions about the existence, severity, or frequency of problems associated with devices." It adds that the reporting system "has limitations, including the potential submission of incomplete, inaccurate, untimely, unverified, or biased data."

See the methodology and sources; FDA's record is authoritative, and corrections are handled within five working days.
