Diabetes patients and their families are raising concerns, and in some cases filing lawsuits, after Abbott Diabetes Care recalled glucose monitors linked to seven deaths.
In December, Abbott recalled certain sensors used in its FreeStyle Libre 3 and FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus systems, warning they could produce falsely low glucose readings. The company reported 736 serious adverse events potentially tied to the issue, including 57 in the United States, along with seven deaths worldwide.
