'introduced a safety' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both related to change as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?

'device amid chaotic din' is the wordplay.
'device' becomes 'fuse' (fuse is a kind of device).
'amid' is an insertion indicator.
'chaotic' indicates an anagram.
'din' with letters rearranged gives 'ind'.
'fuse' going into 'ind' is 'INFUSED'.
