Additional Manufacturer Narrative
According to customer reports, the final three bgs were taken from a peripherally inserted central catheter (picc) which had dextrose infusing through one of the ports and the contaminated samples resulted in falsely elevated poc blood glucose measurements.Application audit logs for this patient treatment were reviewed, encompassing components such as settings and configuration, sensitivity factor adjustments, insulin infusion rate recommendations, warnings and alerts.A simulation case was also evaluated in a test environment and produced identical results.After careful review and diagnostic testing, it was determined that the application performed within specifications and no product non-conformances were identified.
 
Event or Problem Description
The customer reported that a critically ill hospitalized patient, was started on glucommander iv.The patient reached target range and remained in target for approximately 8 hours, upon which a blood glucose of 292 mg/dl was entered by the nurse.Because of the dramatic change in blood glucose levels, glucommander presented a warning to the end user alerting them that this blood glucose was significantly higher than the previous blood glucose and asking them to confirm the blood glucose was 292 mg/dl.The user acknowledged the warning and confirmed the bg at 292 mg/dl.A subsequent bg of 315 mg/dl was entered next, upon which glucommander alerted the user that the maximum infusion rate had been reached and to contact the physician.A final bg of 257 mg/dl was entered 67 minutes later, 7 minutes past the recommended bg check time.After this final bg was entered, the customer stated the patient had seizures and a subsequent bg reading showed severe hypoglycemia which was not entered into glucommander.
