Important Note regarding Insulin Pumps and Aquapac's case

Aquapac have commissioned research by Imperial College London into the use of the 158 (Insulin Pump case) and 558 (Connected Electronics case) after receiving a large number of customer enquiries regarding their suitablity for use with insulin pumps. Results show that, in some circumstances, insulin flow rate can be reduced by the case. In particular, low flow rates are impeded, and as such Aquapac can make no claim regarding the suitablity of these cases with insulin pumps. Use of these cases with insulin pumps is entirely at the discretion of the user.

Aquapac has been advised to recommend that users of Aquapac cases with insulin pumps regularly check their blood sugar levels.

The tests were conducted by Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine using a Roche Accu-Check Spirit insulin pump at a temperature of 20C at flow rates of 2U/hr and 10U/hr. The amounts of insulin delivered over 60 minutes observed were as follows:

2U/hr not in a case - 0.0131g (flow rate of 100%)
2U/hr in Aquapac 150 - 0.0106g (flow rate of 81%)
2U/hr in Aquapac 150 - 0.0056g (2nd test model)(flow rate of 42%)
2U/hr in Aquapac 550 - 0.0121g (flow rate 92%)

10U/hr not in case - 0.0864g (flow rate of 100%)
10U/hr in Aquapac 150 - 0.0878g (flow rate of 100%)
10U/hr in Aquapac 550 - 0.0903g (flow rate of 100%)

"Thank you again for everything. You have no idea how happy my son will be to go in the water on vacation."
: Review by Magnus (age 11) - living with Type One Diabetes treated with a Medtronic Insulin pump , added 21/07/2011: The Aquapac insulin pump protector is brilliant!

“The Aquapac insulin pump protector is brilliant! I used it to keep my pump dry when we went white water rafting in Nepal. Before we discovered the Aquapac we thought I would not be able to go on the three day rafting trip because of my pump. However Aquapac worked perfectly keeping the pump totally dry. We were camping on beaches at night and it also protected the pump from sand. Since then I have used it for skiing and sailing and now I feel I can do anything without worrying about my pump. Thank you for designing something so brilliant!”
