Manufacturer Narrative
Narrative field: new, updated, and corrected information is referenced within the update statements.Please refer to update statement(s) dated (b)(6) 2021.No further follow-up is planned.Evaluation summary: a male patient reported that his humapen ergo ii device was difficult to push, the injection speed was not very uniform during the process of pressing down the injection pen, sometimes quick and sometimes slow.When injecting the last dose unit, the injection button was particularly difficult to press down.So possibly, he might have not injected the insulin completely.The patient experienced abnormal blood glucose.The device was not returned to the manufacturer for investigation (batch 1608d02, manufactured august 2016).Therefore, it could not be evaluated to confirm the complaint or presence of a malfunction.Malfunction unknown.A complaint history review did not identify any atypical findings with regard to uneven injection force issues, and the batch threshold review did not identify any atypical findings with regard to dose accuracy issues.All humapen ergo ii devices are assessed for injection screw travel at the end of the manufacturing process, thus ensuring device functionality and dose accuracy with high probability.The patient stated he used the device four to five years.The core instructions for use state the humapen ergo ii has been designed to be used for up to 3 years after first use.There is evidence of improper use.The patient used the device beyond the recommended use period.It is unknown if the misuse is relevant to the complaint or the event of abnormal blood glucose.
