Event or Problem Description

The customer called ascensia customer service to seek assistance with the contour® next gen meter.During troubleshooting, two control tests were run and readings of 158 mg/dl and 338 mg/dl were obtained.The meter did not automatically mark the reading of 338 mg/dl as a control test, and so the reading will be displayed as a blood result when accessing the meter's memory.There was no allegation of an adverse event.The customer was advised to return the device for evaluation.Replacement meter kit and test strips were sent to the customer.
