Event Description

Hello, our patient who had the dexcom g6 pro (sn (b)(6)) placed on (b)(6) 2020 returned today.He had to take sensor off as he was having low alarms signals for 6 hour after placement as we discussed on (b)(4) 2021.He checked these numbers against his bg meter and off by over 100 points.I placed sn: (b)(4) on him today, successfully paired on my clinic reader but noted "sensor error " on his phone (he did disconnect previous sensor).We placed another dexcom g6 on him and it paired immediately with clinic reader and his i-phone.At each insertion location of placement did not have any scar tissues, bruising or lipo hypertrophy.No blood noted upon insertion with all three sites.I have the sn (b)(4) transmitter and can save for you.Please address these two issues with your management.If i can receive two new dexcom g6 pro that would help our clinic supply.Thanks.
