Sensor Life
Sensors can be worn for up to 10 days (238 hours; 240 hours less 2 hours warm-up
period). To estimate how long a sensor will work over 10 days, all sensors worn were
evaluated to determine how many days/hours of readings each sensor provided.
For adults, a total of 164 sensors were evaluated. Ninety-four percent (94%) of the
sensors lasted through the end of the entire wear period (e.g., Day 10) (see Figure 1-A).
Among the 164 sensors evaluated, 8 sensors (4.9%) had "early sensor shut-off" where
the sensor algorithm would have detected sensors that did not function as intended
and shut them off.
For pediatrics, a total of 210 sensors were evaluated. Seventy-seven percent (77%) of
the sensors lasted through the end of the entire wear period (e.g., Day 10) (see Figure
1-B). Among the 210 sensors evaluated, 28 sensors (13.3%) had "early sensor shut-
off" where the sensor algorithm would have detected sensors that did not function as
intended and shut them off.
