There have been recent reports of potential over-delivery of insulin shortly after an infusion set change. Subsequent investigations have found that this issue may be caused by fluid blocking the infusion set membrane during the priming/fill-tubing process. A membrane blocked by fluid most likely occurs if insulin, alcohol or water is spilled on the top of the reservoir or inside the tubing connector, which could prevent the insulin set from working properly.
