Important information related to the Accu-Chek® Guide system: Voluntary recall of meters showing incorrect measurement unit

Dear Accu-Chek Guide user,
At Roche Diabetes Care we strive for the highest quality of our products and services and are committed to keeping you timely informed on any issue associated with our products. Today, we would like to notify you of a voluntary corrective measure that we are initiating concerning our Accu-Chek Guide blood glucose meter.
We recently received a very low number of customer complaints indicating that some Accu-Chek Guide systems out of the below-listed lots were congured incorrectly and thus show the results in a different than labeled measuring unit.

Description of situation and rationale giving rise to this corrective measure
Because patient safety is our top priority, we inform you today about the potential risk resulting from the above-described issue. It becomes visible once a blood glucose measurement is taken and the user could recognise that the result is displayed in a different than the usual measuring unit (mg/dL or mmol/l). If going unnoticed, the incorrectly displayed blood glucose value might trigger inappropriate therapy decisions including the administration of insulin and potentially result in severe consequences. Possible consequences of this issue could range from no clinical impact to adverse health events including hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, or diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA).
