Event or Problem Description

|
Patient has had the premier compact for a year.The meter serial number is rubbed off.Patient stated they received a reading of 231.Because of this higher reading, the patient treated himself with insulin and then went too low and fainted and became unconscious.The paramedics were called.When the paramedics took a few readings, their meters read 20 when testing the patient indicating that his blood sugar was extremely low.Patient was treated by the paramedics who gave him glucose to get back to a stable level.Patient was not transferred to a hospital and felt better after being treated by the paramedics.Patient is concerned that the reading of 231 was most likely inaccurate and his blood sugar wasn't high at the time of that test, because he didn't have any symptoms and felt fine, but then treated himself inappropriately based on the reading of 231.Patient is now unsure if the readings he is receiving are accurate.Patient had tested with control solution a month ago and the reading was in range, but the caller no longer has control solution to test the meter again at this time.Replaced meter, strips, sent control solution and return label.
