Medtronic Blood Glucose Sensor

Each monthly box of sensors includes 30 days of sensor wear to ensure you are only provided with safe reliable and accurate sensor glucose values.

Medtronic blood glucose sensor.

The minimed 670g system includes smartguard technology which can be programmed to automatically adjust delivery of basal insulin based on continuous glucose monitor sensor glucose values and can suspend delivery of insulin when the sensor glucose value falls below or is predicted to fall below predefined threshold values. Caring for your sensor transmitter. Manage your glucose levels with a smarter cgm continuous glucose monitoring system powered by guardian sensor 3. In conjunction with the guardian 2 link transmitter your glucose information is sent directly to your minimed insulin pump.

The enlite sensor is compatible with most medtronic smart pump technology systems. D b a medtronic diabetes or its subsidiaries contractors or representatives to use your personal information. The enlite sensor has an electrode that inserts just under the skin to measure your glucose values. Interstitial fluid is the fluid that surrounds the cells of your tissue below your skin and usually glucose moves from your blood vessels and capillaries first and then into your interstitial fluid.

Why sensor glucose does not equal blood glucose. Measures sensor glucose 24 7 and sends alerts when a high or low is detected. Get started benefits of cgm powered byguardian sensor 3. Sensor transmitter troubleshooting tips.

Without predictive alerts turned on it has a 90 5 hypoglycemia detection rate when worn on the abdomen. By using a continuous glucose monitor your cgm system will automatically receive glucose readings every 5 minutes allowing you to fingerstick less often. Consult a physician immediately if you experience significant pain or if you suspect that the site is infected. Guardian sensor 3 can be worn for up to 7 days however if your sensor is not performing well you may receive a change sensor alert.

You authorize medtronic minimed inc. Your sensor glucose sg readings are taken from your interstitial fluid and not from your blood like fingersticks. Our most advanced sensor guardian sensor 3. Insertion of a glucose sensor may cause bleeding or irritation at the insertion site.

The information provided by cgm systems is intended to supplement not replace blood glucose information obtained using a blood glucose meter. Continuous glucose monitoring is an advanced way for people living with diabetes to check glucose readings in real time or monitor glucose readings over a period of time.
