Thanks for choosing the Dexcom G7 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System
(G7)! Using this medical device, you'll see your glucose readings on your display
device just by wearing a tiny sensor!
Here are some of the benefits of using G7 to manage your glucose:
No more fingersticks: G7 allows you to make treatment decisions without
l
fingersticks. (If your glucose alerts and readings from the G7 do not match
symptoms or expectations, use a blood glucose meter to make diabetes treatment
decisions.)
Predict and prevent highs and lows: With G7, you have the information needed
l
to keep your glucose in range, you can customize your alert schedule, and you get
a 20-minute warning when your glucose is quickly heading towards 3.1 mmol/L.
Bring more peace of mind: G7 lets you share glucose data with your support
l
team to keep them informed about your glucose levels in real time.
Repeat successes: See the results of your actions in the summary reports and
l
keep improving.
So let's get started!
