Consideraciones sobre el paciente
Confort
Low profile. No overtape needed and one-hand insertion.
Estilo de vida activo
Compact and integrated. Reducing bulk; compatibility with daily activities depends on the adhesive and body movement. Water-resistant up to 8 feet (2.4 m) for 30 minutes.
Evitar los altibajos
SmartGuard closed-loop. Pump adjustments use sensor data continuously to reduce highs and lows.
Fácil de usar
All-in-one. Eliminates the need for a separate transmitter, simplifying sensor changes (although more frequent due to the 6-day wear).
Dosificación sencilla de la insulina
SmartGuard technology. When paired with the MiniMed 780G, it automatically adjusts basal and gives correction boluses based on sensor readings. In manual mode, glucose values can guide dosing decisions, but fingersticks are required for confirmation.
Menos palillos
Calibration is optional. Perfect if you like having that choice.
Privacidad
Small and integrated, but visible on the back of the arm. No separate transmitter reduces the number of visible parts. Alerts and alarms can be adjusted for discretion.
