Electromagnetic interference can still occur in the home health care environment as
control over the EMC environment cannot be guaranteed. An interference event can be
recognized by gaps in sensor readings or gross inaccuracies. The user is encouraged
to try to mitigate these effects by one of the following measures:
If your symptoms do not match your sensor readings, use your BG meter when
l
making treatment decisions. If sensor readings do not consistently match your
symptoms or BG meter values, then talk to your healthcare professional about

Dexcom G7 continues to show readings 50 or 60 points higher than when I stick my finger and use the supplied recorder. Why?

The Dexcom G7 may show readings 50 or 60 points higher than fingerstick measurements due to several reasons:

1. Sensor's First Day: Newly inserted sensors may show larger differences, which usually decrease over the first 24 hours.
2. Pressure on Sensor: If something is pressing on the sensor (e.g., lying on it), it can affect readings. Removing the pressure can help.
3. Rapid Glucose Changes: Blood glucose changes before interstitial fluid glucose, so fast changes can cause differences between meter and sensor readings.
4. Fingerstick Issues: Inaccurate fingerstick readings can occur if hands are not washed properly or test strips are expired or used incorrectly.

These factors can cause temporary differences between Dexcom G7 and fingerstick readings.
