Code 112
1. Advise the patient that only values between 20-600 mg/dL (1.1 - 33.3 mmol/L) will be accepted.
2. Document “Calibrate in 15 mins (readings stopped)” or “Calibrate now (readings continued)”.
3. Make sure the patient has waited 15 minutes, and then entered at least 1 calibration. If no readings display on the receiver after this additional FS, the sensor needs to be replaced.
Acetaminophen [uh-see-tuh-min-uh-fuhn] (also known as Paracetamol in UK and Canada) is contraindicated for G6 for amounts over 1,000 mg over the course of a 6 hour period. The length of time that acetaminophen (paracetamol) affects the system's performance is based on dosage and length of time since the dose.
