A) Three had left pen elsewhere, too far away to be retrieved in time for treatment (b) Two had not replaced after use (one used the day before, the other several years previously) (c) One found her epinephrine to be out of date and so went to hospital; she then died after inappropriate bolus iv injection of epinephrine 1 mg (d) Two reason not known The failure in these latter cases might be attributed to poor training; often the doctor prescribing the pen is unfamiliar with the device [80, 81] and fails to train the patient adequately to ensure they have the device with them when it might be needed, to use it at the correct time in a reaction with a correctinjection technique [82–84].
