No further follow-up is planned.Evaluation summary: a female patient reported that the injection screw of her humapen savvio device was broken.She experienced decreased blood glucose and coma.The device was not returned to the manufacturer for investigation (batch 1212v07, manufactured december 2012).Therefore, it could not be evaluated to confirm the complaint or presence of a malfunction.Malfunction unknown.A complaint history review of the batch did not identify any atypical findings with respect to injection screw broken or dose accuracy issues.All humapen savvio devices are assessed for injection screw travel at the end of the manufacturing process, thus ensuring device functionality and dose accuracy with high probability.There is no evidence of improper use or storage.
