- 2026-03-18FDA-DeviceTrividia HealthClass INationwideOwner's Booklets and Instructions for Use that are used with the following blood glucose measurement devices. Description/Item: TRUE METRIX PRO Meter Only/RE4H01P-40, TRUE METRIX PRO Starter Kit/RE4H01P-43, PROCURE TRUE METRIX PRO Meter Only/RE4212P-00, Henry Schein TRUE METRIX PRO Meter Only/RE4099P-40, Henry Schein TRUE METRIX PRO Kit/RE4099P-43, McKESSON TRUE METRIX PRO Meter Only/RE4051P-00, Moore Medical TRUE METRIX PRO Meter Only/RE4068P-01.
The system labeling (user manual and online labeling) did not provide adequate directions for lay users to act on the E-5 error code. The error code description and recommended actions for the E-5 error code in the labeling do not: (a) clearly emphasize that an E-5 error code could represent a very high blood glucose level, and (b) prominently convey the appropriate immediate actions, such as contacting a healthcare professional. This could lead to a delay in treatment if the user does not seek medical attention immediately when receiving an E-5 error code and experiencing symptoms of high glucose.

- 2026-03-18FDA-DeviceInstrumentation LaboratoryClass IINationwideCheck your GEM Premier 5000 cartridge lot numbers
Confirmed customer complaints indicating that GEM PAKs (cartridges) for the GEM Premier 5000 may experience an increased incidence of Process Control Solution Not Detected (PCSND) errors during warm-up, including consecutive occurrences, resulting in GEM PAK ejection and requiring insertion of a new GEM PAK. iQM2 is an active quality process control program designed to provide continuous monitoring of the entire testing process. Thus, if a GEM PAK completes AutoPAK Validation following warm-up, it may remain in use. Consecutive GEM PAK ejections during warm-up may prolong turnaround times, potentially delaying results. In such cases, patient management may require reassessment once results are available. While many GEM PAKs continue to perform as intended, consecutive ejections may increase the likelihood of operational disruption, highlighting the importance of advance planning where feasible to help minimize impact.
