| SUBJECT | Subject: [Hangout - NYLXS] Libre CBG monitors are being recalled - URGENT
|
A Lethal and Broad recall is in effect of Abbott's Lifestyle Libre
Continuous Blood Glucose Monitors used for Diabetics. This has already
lead to 7 deaths and that number is bound to grow.
In several cases the machines are giving false results leading to
patients to take actions that injure them and cause their deaths. This
is serious business
Call: tel:855-632-8658 if you use these machines. And spread the word
since the PRESS seems to busy to do so.
Abbott is one of my least favorite companies. They were also involved
with the Baby Food crisis not long ago and their business practices are
vulture like.

URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE CORRECTION
FreeStyle Libre 3 and FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus Sensors
Abbott has recently identified that certain FreeStyle Libre 3
and FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus sensors provide
incorrect low glucose readings. We learned about this through our
ongoing product monitoring, where Libre 3 and Libre 3 Plus sensor users
reported situations where they received incorrect low glucose readings.
This issue does not apply to the FreeStyle Libre 3 reader and app or any
other Libre product.
This issue affects a subset of Freestyle Libre 3 and FreeStyle Libre 3
Plus sensors. To determine if your current sensor or any unused
sensor(s) are potentially affected, go to CONFIRM SENSOR SERIAL NUMBER.
See how to locate the sensor serial number HERE.
Verify your sensor's expiration date and discard any that have expired.
Potential Harms
If undetected, incorrect low glucose readings over an extended period
may lead to wrong treatment decisions for people living with diabetes,
such as excessive carbohydrate intake or skipping or delaying insulin doses.
These decisions may pose serious health risks, including potential
injury or death, or other less serious complications.
Use a blood glucose meter or the built-in meter in your FreeStyle Libre
3 Reader to make treatment decisions when your sensor readings don’t
match your symptoms or expectations.
Abbott has identified and resolved the cause of the issue. The company
continues to produce Libre 3 and Libre 3 Plus sensors to fulfill
replacement and new orders and does not expect significant supply
disruptions.
