SOOIL Dana Diabecare RS
SOOIL Development
What it is
The Bluetooth tubed pump used with open-source AndroidAPS with published DIY-loop evidence before the Dana-i. It is less current than Dana-i, but important for DIY-loop compatibility and the history of interoperable pump control (CREATE-era attribution and import-history specifics not verified in this review).

Evidence behind this assessment
Key evidence notes. Study results, product eligibility and access answer different questions.
- Who was studied?
- Study populations and analysis groups vary. Product age limits alone do not describe who was studied.
- Benefit or performance
- Reliability: Clinical AndroidAPS data using Dana hardware were reassuring, but public advisories disclosed Bluetooth/app vulnerabilities before version 3.0.[4]
- Important harms and treatment burden
- Read the safety discussion and original sources. A missing summary does not establish safety.
- Approval and country access
- Country-specific approval and access are not summarized in this record.Approval, trial recruitment, local supply and funding are separate. Check the cited label or access source.
- Follow-up and remaining uncertainty
- Read the full discussion and original sources for follow-up duration and study limitations.
This record cites company or conference reports. Those sources may describe interim findings; their source type is shown in the source list.
Editorial score: calculation and evidence
A weighted editorial judgment on a 0–100 scale, not a probability of success or a measured treatment effect. Higher criterion scores mean more favorable assessments.
Default calculation: 82 × 20 + 65 × 20 + 50 × 20 + 75 × 15 + 70 × 10 + 45 × 15 = 6440; divide by total weight 100. Unrounded weighted result: 64.4.
Supported by AndroidAPS and used in published DIY-loop evidence; Bluetooth control made it an open durable pump (official/open specifics not verified in this review).[2]
Clinical AndroidAPS data using Dana hardware were reassuring, but public advisories disclosed Bluetooth/app vulnerabilities before version 3.0.[4]
Small tubed durable pump, not tubeless; practical but less discreet than a patch system.[1]
Bluetooth remote control and AndroidAPS support, though setup and safety responsibility fall heavily on the user.[2]
300-unit reservoir (figure confirmed for the Dana-i line; RS-specific reservoir not verified in this review) and standard pump feature set suit most users for multi-day wear.[1]
Reported in non-US distribution consistent with community use, but not a US mainstream pump and increasingly superseded by Dana-i (specific markets, import channels and supersession timeline not verified in this review).[1]
Editor’s take
Dana RS is a connector record: less important than Dana-i for future purchasers, but central to the DIY/open-source lineage. It should exist so trials and loop records do not have to mislabel Dana-RS evidence as Dana-i or a generic pump.
The full picture
Why this is not just Dana-i
Dana-i is the cleaner current record. Dana RS is the earlier pump used in published DIY-loop evidence with Bluetooth pump control and AndroidAPS support (per the Compatible Pumps listing and the published DIY hybrid closed-loop study); import/availability specifics beyond that listing were not verified in this review.
The caution is security and support. Public advisories documented vulnerabilities in Dana RS/AnyDANA versions before 3.0, and DIY-loop use depends on user skill, community documentation and careful configuration.
CamAPS software safety updates. CamDiab’s notices retire affected Android app versions below 1.4(192) from 31 August 2026 for cybersecurity reasons. Pump, country, phone and sensor determine the applicable app build. Its September notices also advise checking CGM compatibility before an operating-system update. Use the manufacturer’s current notification and compatibility instructions for the exact configuration.6
