Yes
Data streams directly to the pump; users and clinicians can view trends and logs via Medtronic’s platforms.
Optionen der Datenansicht
Yes
Data view directly on your connected pump or smart device.
Dauer und Lagerung
15 Days
Sensors last up to 15 days and need about 1 hour to warm up. They work between 50ºF – 113ºF and should be stored between 36ºF – 82ºF. They are usually shipped in 1–3 month supplies, which is about 2–6 sensors at a time.
Sehvermögen / Hörvermögen / Geschicklichkeit
YES text to speech
YES vibration alerts
Multiple sound sources
SOME dexterity needed
Überlegungen zum Patienten
Komfort
Small & Discreet. Very small, discreet form factor, and minimal bulk.
Aktiver Lebensstil
Long wear & water resistant. Longer wear reduces change burden; sensor design aims for robustness with movement. Water-resistant up to 3 feet (1 m) for 30 minutes (same standard as FreeStyle Libre family).
Vermeiden von Hochs und Tiefs
Continuous closed-loop insulin adjustment helps maintain tighter control.
Einfach zu benutzen
Longer sensor life and shorter warm-up (~1 hour) help with convenience.
Einfache Insulindosierung
MiniMed 780G closed-loop algorithm: adjusts basal and delivers automatic correction boluses using sensor data. Longer wear (15 days) means fewer interruptions in automated dosing. In manual mode, it still requires fingerstick confirmation before dosing from sensor values.
Weniger Fingersticks
Werkskalibrierter Sensor. Fingersticks werden nur zur Unterstützung benötigt.
Datenschutz
Small & Customizable. Extremely small (about the size of two stacked pennies), designed to be less noticeable under clothing. Upper arm site only; discreet but still visible with sleeveless clothing. Alerts can be customized on the connected pump for quieter use.
