Manufacturer Narrative
|
The insertion of new sensor was off label since it was inserted in a close proximity to the older sensor.This would create a signal interference issue for the user with the new sensor.The most likely root cause of this incident is due to the procedural error from the inserting physician as the new one should have been inserted in the other pocket/other arm.Since the normal usage of the system will not be possible due to sensors being close to each other, user was advised to consult with the hcp to discuss the possibility of removing both the sensors.User was advised to get inserted with a fresh sensor, preferably in other arm.As per the information received by senseonics at the time of submitting this report, the hcp scheduled removal appointment for on (b)(6) 2024.At the time of reporting this incident, removal confirmation is not available.
