Eversense CGM User Guide
“HI” Reading
Indicates a sensor glucose reading is
> 400 mg/dL.
Hyperglycemia
An episode of high blood glucose.
Hypoglycemia
An episode of low blood glucose.
Interstitial Fluid (ISF)
The fluid between cells in
the body. The Eversense CGM measures glucose from
an interstitial fluid sample, versus glucose in a blood
sample obtained from a fingerstick.
Jailbroken Device
A device (iPhone or iPod) that has
been modified to remove the controls and limits set by
the original manufacturer.
LED
Light Emitting Diode
Linked Sensor
A sensor that is connected to a smart
transmitter.
“LO” Reading
Indicates sensor glucose reading is
< 40 mg/dL.
Mobile Device
A handheld device built on a mobile
operating system that runs the Eversense App and
communicates with the smart transmitter.
mg/dL
Milligrams per deciliter, a unit of measure that
shows the concentration of a substance in a specific
amount of fluid. In some countries, including the United
States, glucose test results are reported as mg/dL,
indicating how much glucose is in the blood when using
a blood glucose meter, or how much glucose is in the
interstitial fluid when using some CGM systems, like the
Eversense CGM System.
mmol/L
Millimoles per liter, a unit of measure that
shows the concentration of a substance in a specific
amount of fluid. In many countries, glucose test results
are reported as mmol/L, indicating how much glucose is
in the blood when using a blood glucose meter, or how
much glucose is in the interstitial fluid when using some
CGM systems, like the Eversense CGM System.
MRI
Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Rate of change/trend arrows
Indicators of direction
and speed of change of your glucose levels.
Remote Monitoring
An optional feature that allows
you to invite others to view your CGM data using
Eversense NOW, a separate mobile app they download
to a compatible mobile device.
Sensor
A device inserted subcutaneously for
continually measuring interstitial fluid glucose levels.
Snooze Setting
Used to set how often an alert repeats.
Subcutaneous
Located beneath the skin.
Smart Transmitter
A reusable device worn externally
over the inserted sensor that powers the sensor and
sends glucose information to the mobile device for
display in the Eversense App.
Warm-Up Phase
The period the sensor requires to
adjust after the sensor has been inserted and before
calibrations.
