People with diabetes use the Dexcom G6 to monitor glucose. It is a patch device applied to the user’s abdomen, and a small sensor monitors glucose and transmits readings every five minutes to an app on the user’s cell phone. An alarm is triggered if their blood sugar drops too low or is above safe levels. Malfunction of the alarm system is a serious issue because the user would not be timely notified of dangerously high or low blood sugar levels. If the Dexcom G6 is integrated with an automated insulin dosing system, an increase in blood sugar would result in the pump releasing the necessary insulin. A proper functioning device is critical to the appropriate insulin dosing, as inaccurate monitoring puts a patient’s health at risk.
If you have diabetes, you understand the importance of precise glucose measurements to receive appropriate insulin doses to manage your disease. If the device does not generate accurate readings or you are not alerted to a glucose level that is too low or too high, you can suffer serious health effects.
You may initially experience minor symptoms, including dizziness, fatigue, confusion, or anxiety, or you may appear pale with clammy skin. These signs alone may indicate your glucose monitor is not providing accurate readings. However, longer-term dangers of low blood sugar are more severe and can result in a brain injury, seizures, or even death.
