![]() ![]() this device is not cleared for kids younger than 14 years old.the system stops generating data if you don’t calibrate it at least once every 12 hours.this is the only CGM available that is not currently approved by the FDA for use in making insulin dosing or diabetes treatment decisions without first doing a fingerstick test to “calibrate” the system.each sensor has an adhesive backing, but the transmitter does not, and that can lead to it sticking less to your body without extra overtape or other adhesives.putting in a new sensor and attaching the transmitter can be cumbersome with several steps, making it less user-friendly compared to competing easy-to-use CGMs available.sensor and transmitter design are clunky.snooze feature, so you can silence your CGM alerts for a period of time.personalized alerts and alarm features, including adjustable volume settings at night and throughout the day.ability to manually log your insulin, food, exercise, and any notes desired to go along with glucose data. ![]() displays past glucose data from the previous 3, 6, 12, or 24 hours.includes predictive alarms, which can be set to alert you 10 to 60 minutes before your glucose levels are predicted to cross the low or high threshold you’ve programmed.mobile app has a clean and easy-to-read user interface, showing current blood glucose readings, trends, and alarms.has a separate transmitter attached to each sensor, but it’s rechargeable and lasts for a year (compared to the Dexcom G6’s 3-month lifecycle).easy to insert with a one-button insertion device that allows you to place the CGM sensor on your body with one hand.does not use a separate receiver, but rather connects directly with your smartphone or smartwatch.stand-alone system you can use without an insulin pump, if you’re on insulin pens or syringes, or if you use a non-Medtronic insulin pump.No other potential conflicts of interest relevant to this article were reported.

HbA 1c was measured at a central laboratory using the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry–aligned method during the APCam11 study and at local laboratories during and APCam08 studies.ĭuality of Interest. Participants in the latter two studies contributed two sets of 3 months’ CGM and HbA 1c data. APCam11 was a parallel design study, while and APCam08 were crossover design studies. ![]() We used data from three recently published 12-week randomized controlled trials evaluating the safety and effectiveness of closed-loop in comparison with sensor-augmented pump therapy in adults and children with type 1 diabetes and HbA 1c between 7.5% and 10% (58 and 86 mmol/mol): APCam11 (Home Testing of Day and Night Closed Loop With Pump Suspend Feature) ( n = 86, Guardian 3) ( 2), (Closing the Loop in Adults With Sub-optimally Controlled Type 1 Diabetes Under Free Living Conditions) ( n = 33, Navigator 2), and APCam08 (Closing the Loop in Children and Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes in the Home Setting) ( n = 25, Navigator 2) ( 3). ![]()
