Sensor insertion risks
Inserting the sensor can cause infection, bleeding,
or pain. Some people are sensitive to the sensor
adhesive. If you have significant skin irritation,
such as itching, burning, and/or rashes at the site
of the adhesive patch, contact your healthcare
professional.
No sensor wires broke or detached in clinical
studies; however, there is a remote chance a sensor
wire could break or detach and remain under your
skin. Sterile broken or detached sensor wires
usually do not pose a significant medical risk. If
a sensor wire breaks off or detaches, remains
under your skin, and shows signs of infection or
inflammation, contact your Healthcare Professional
and Technical Support at dexcom.com, or contact
your local Dexcom representative.
