25,781 medical device reports received by FDA name the brand "MMT-712 PARADIGM Insulin Pump" (pump infusion insulin); the manufacturer given most often on reports is Medtronic Puerto Rico Operations; received from May 2017 to August 2026. Brand names are as the reporter or manufacturer wrote them, so one product can appear under several spellings.

4,138 reports arrived in the 12 months to August 2026, up 13% from 3,664 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 malfunction (97.5%) and injury (2.4%); across all pump, infusion, insulin reports (product code LZG) death is recorded in 0.3% and malfunction in 81.6%. Event type is the reporter's classification of the report, not a verified outcome.

The device problems coded most often are mechanical problem (32.2%), obstruction of flow (13.8%) and device difficult to program or calibrate (10%). The patient problems coded most often are hyperglycemia, hypoglycemia and elevated ketones/ diabetic ketoacidosis. 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."
