Event Description
|
Unomedical reference: (b)(4).The following occur in (b)(6) and concern an incident with a (b)(6) citizen.A female diabetic type i patient is brought to hospital (b)(6) in the morning of (b)(6) 2022 with a blood glucose of 2.7 (bg value unit presumably mmol/l), ketoacidosis, unresponsive in coma.Pump alarmed non-delivery 03:06 - 03:18.Medtronic is replacing pump, insulin reservoir, cgm sensor and infusion set (minimed silhouette mmt-368a).Note: under-delivery of insulin will lead to hyperglycemia - here hypoglycemia is reported.Unexplainable unless '2.7' is a typing error or is correct but is the result of far to much insulin supplied by extreme over-bolusing in attempt(s) to correct a hyperglycemia.No further data available at this moment.Present data does not allow unomedical to assess causality.We will try to obtain further data on the incident.

Unomedical reference: (b)(4).The following occur in switzerland and concern an incident with a swiss citizen.A female diabetic type i patient is brought to hospital (b)(6) in the morning on (b)(6) 2022 with a blood glucose of 2.7 (bg value unit presumably mmol/l), ketoacidosis, unresponsive in coma.Pump alarmed non-delivery 03:06 - 03:18.Medtronic is replacing pump, insulin reservoir, cgm sensor and infusion set (minimed silhouette mmt-368a).Note: under-delivery of insulin will lead to hyperglycemia - here hypoglycemia is reported.Unexplainable unless '2.7' is a typing error or is correct but is the result of far to much insulin supplied by extreme over-bolusing in attempt(s) to correct a hyperglycemia.No further data available at this moment.Present data does not allow unomedical to assess causality.We will try to obtain further data on the incident.Update per on (b)(6) 2022: the insulin pump is a medtronic 670g model.The low blood glucose value of 2.7 mmol/l has been confirmed (value and units).Patient had attempted to correct high blood glucose with her fallback medication of pen-based insulin.We assume that this resulted in too much insulin being administered multiple times and too fast thus leading to hospital admission with severe hypoglycemia and coma.We remain unable to assess what led to the initial pump alarm of no-delivery.Update per on (b)(6) 2022: we re-open the case as we have just received further information from medtronic local staff: sadly the patient, mrs pxxxxxxx, never regained consciousness and died in hospital (b)(6).If further relevant information (such as e.G.Pump data possibly including cgm ascensia sensor bg readings) becomes available, we will again re-open and update the case and submit a new follow-up emdr to fda.
