MAUDE report 50942327 ↗MalfunctionSep 30, 2026Low Readings
It was reported that an inaccuracy between the Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) and the Blood Glucose (BG) meter occurred FREQUENTLY between 9/10/2026 and 9/11/2026. The sensor was inserted into the arm on (b)(6) 2026. It was indicated that the patient entered BG values outside the 40¿400 mg/dL (2.2¿22.2 mmol/L) range, which is misuse of the device. Data was provided for investigation. The allegation was confirmed due to the finding of inaccuracy between the Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) and the Blood Glucose (BG) meter occurred FREQUENTLY within the investigation window. The probable cause of the inaccuracy between the Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) and the Blood Glucose (BG) meter could not be determined. The reported glucose values fall within the C zone of the Parkes Error Grid. The data investigation found a difference in values that fall within the D zone of the Parkes Error Grid. No injury or medical intervention was reported.
