It was reported that the customer went to the emergency room (er) due to blood glucose (bg) level ranging from 16-33 mg/dl, and a seizure causing abrasions.
Customer alleged that the pump delivered 24 units of insulin, when customer was attempting to correct for 24 grams of carbohydrates consumed.
Pump data review confirmed the pump was functioning as intended as data shows customer requested 24 units of insulin, and did not enter a carbohydrate amount.
Additionally, customer's max hourly bolus rate was set to 25 grams, so customer would not have received a warning message; however customer maintained that pump was not functioning as intended.
Bg was treated with carbohydrates, and an unspecified intravenous treatment.
Reportedly, customer left the emergency room 3-4 hours later with customer in stable condition (bg in the 200's mg/dl).
