Warnings
(continued)
•
DO NOT insert your infusion set or inject insulin within 4 in (10.16 cm) of the sensor site. If the insulin delivery
site is within 4 in (10.16 cm) of the sensor site, it may interfere with sensor glucose readings and can cause
inaccurate glucose readings.
•
Always follow your health care provider’s instructions for care after the sensor insertion or removal. Contact
your health care provider if any of the following events occur:
–
You have pain, redness, or swelling at the incision site(s) later than 5 days after the sensor insertion or
removal.
•
If your sensor glucose is very low (below 40 mg/dL) or very high (above 400 mg/dL), you should perform a
fingerstick blood glucose test prior to making a treatment decision.
•
The Eversense CGM System requires calibration in order to provide accurate readings. You should not use CGM
readings to make treatment decisions unless you have followed the instructions for daily calibration.
•
The Eversense CGM System will not provide readings during the 24 hour Warm-Up Phase and until a second
calibration is successful during the Initialization Phase. During this time, you should monitor your glucose
using a home blood glucose monitor.
•
Certain conditions and alerts will prevent glucose data from being displayed. During these times, you should
use a home blood glucose monitor to make treatment decisions. You should carefully read the
Alerts and
Notifications
section of their
Eversense CGM System User Guide
to understand these conditions.
•
The glucose alerts and notifications will not audibly notify you when the sound on your mobile device is
turned off. If the system cannot display a glucose value, it also cannot provide glucose alerts. If you are
unable to feel the vibration of the smart transmitter you may not notice the alerts.
•
When the smart transmitter is not worn over the sensor, such as during charging, the Eversense CGM System
will not provide alerts and notifications on the mobile device or through vibration alerts from the smart
transmitter.
