eversense Continuous Glucose Monitoring System

Product Information

The Eversense CGM System is a continuous glucose monitoring system designed for adults (18 years and older) with diabetes. It is intended to measure interstitial glucose levels for up to 90 days. The system replaces the need for fingerstick blood glucose measurements and provides predictions of low blood glucose (hypoglycemia) and high blood glucose (hyperglycemia) episodes. It also offers historical data interpretation to aid in therapy adjustments based on patterns and trends seen over time.

The system consists of a sensor, smart transmitter, and mobile app. The sensor is MR Conditional and should be removed before undergoing magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedures. The smart transmitter powers the sensor, calculates glucose readings, stores and sends data to the app, and provides on-body vibe alerts. It is secured to the skin with a disposable adhesive patch that needs to be changed daily.

The Eversense CGM System is not recommended for individuals who are contraindicated for dexamethasone or dexamethasone acetate use, or for those undergoing MRI procedures. Additionally, the system may provide falsely elevated sensor glucose results if used in combination with substances containing blood mannitol or sorbitol concentrations.

Product Usage Instructions

1. Wearing the Smart Transmitter:
   • Apply the disposable adhesive patch to secure the smart transmitter to your skin.
   • The smart transmitter can be worn daily and can be removed and reapplied at any time.
   • Note : The smart transmitter is water-resistant (IP67) up to a depth of 1 meter (3.2 feet) for up to 30 minutes.
2. Turning the Smart Transmitter ON and OFF:
   • To turn the smart transmitter ON, press and hold the power button for about five seconds.
   • To turn the smart transmitter OFF, press and hold the power button for about five seconds.
   • To check if the smart transmitter is ON, press the power button once. If the LED indicator lights green or orange, it means the smart transmitter is ON. If no LED appears, it means the smart transmitter is OFF.
3. Getting Started Steps:

Indications for Use

The Eversense CGM System is intended for continually measuring interstitial glucose levels in adults (18 years and older) with diabetes for up to 90 days. The system is indicated for use to replace fingerstick blood glucose measurements for diabetes treatment decisions.

The system is intended to:

• Provide real-time glucose
• Provide glucose trend
• Provide alerts for the detection and prediction of episodes of low blood glucose (hypoglycemia) and high blood glucose (hyperglycemia).
• The system is a prescription device. Historical data from the system can be interpreted to aid in providing therapy These adjustments should be based on patterns and trends seen over time.
• The system is intended for single patient

Contraindications

• The system is contraindicated in people for whom dexamethasone or dexamethasone acetate may be
• The smart transmitter is incompatible with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) The smart transmitter is MR Unsafe and MUST BE REMOVED before undergoing an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) procedure. The sensor is MR Conditional. For more information on the sensor, see MRI Safety Information in the Eversense CGM System User Guide.
• Mannitol or sorbitol, when administered intravenously, or as a component of an irrigation solution or peritoneal dialysis solution, may increase blood mannitol or sorbitol concentrations and cause falsely elevated readings of your sensor glucose Sorbitol is used in some artificial sweeteners, and concentration levels from typical dietary intake do not impact sensor glucose results.

Making Treatment Decisions with Eversense

To make a treatment decision, you should consider:

• Status bar information
• Current sensor glucose value – the current glucose value should be displayed in black
• Trend arrow – a trend arrow should be displayed
• Recent trend information and alerts

When to NOT make a treatment decision:

• No glucose value is displayed
• No trend arrow is displayed
• Your symptoms do not match the glucose information displayed
• The current sensor glucose value is displayed in grey
• The status bar is displayed in orange
• You are taking medications of the tetracycline class

Note : Always refer to the glucose information on your Eversense CGM App on your smartphone to make treatment decisions. Do not utilize a secondary display like the Apple Watch or Eversense NOW.

Eversense Smart Transmitter

Your rechargeable smart transmitter powers the sensor, calculates glucose readings, and stores and sends data to the app. It also provides on-body vibe alerts. The smart transmitter is secured to your skin with a disposable adhesive patch that is changed daily

Wearing the smart transmitter

• Replace the adhesive patch on your smart transmitter
• The smart transmitter can be removed and reapplied to the skin at any

Note : Your smart transmitter is water resistant (IP67) to a depth of 1 meter (3.2 feet) for up to 30 minutes

Turn the Smart Transmitter ON and OFF

• To turn the smart transmitter ON , press and hold the power button for about five seconds.
• To turn the smart transmitter OFF , press and hold the power button for about five seconds.

Getting Started Steps

Charging the Smart Transmitter

Your smart transmitter must be fully charged before pairing with the app.

• Plug the standard end of the USB cable into the adapter on the USB
• Plug the micro end of the USB cable into the charging cradle USB port
• Line up the four gold pins on the bottom of the smart transmitter with the four gold pins on the charging Once fully charged (about 15 minutes), a small green light appears on the top side of the smart transmitter. Remove the USB cable from the charging cradle after it is fully charged by pulling back on the tab on the cradle, and lifting the smart transmitter out.

IMPORTANT :
Use only the AC power adapter and USB cable provided with the smart transmitter when charging the smart transmitter battery, and never stick any object other than the charging cable into the USB port of the transmitter. Use of another power supply could damage the smart transmitter, not allowing glucose readings to be received properly,  create  the risk of fire, and could result in voiding your warranty. If your Eversense power adapter or USB cable is damaged or lost, contact Customer Support for a replacement to ensure safe operation of the device.
