The glucose sensor is a small electrode that measures your glucose levels. It is placed under the skin in the interstitial fluid, which is where cells receive oxygen and nutrients, including glucose. Glucose sensors are easily inserted using an automatic device: as in other types of infusion sets, a needle is used to insert the glucose sensor. The needle is then removed leaving a thin flexible electrode just below the skin. The glucose sensor is then connected to either the transmitter so that the measurements from the glucose sensor can be transferred to the insulin pump or your device, or to a recorder for download to the software once removed.
The Enlite αισθη sensor is Medtronic’s smallest sensor with optimized features designed to provide exceptional comfort and experience:
• Smaller and more elastic sensor: 80% reduction in sensor size compared to the previous Enlite αισθη sensor
The new generation Enlite αισθη sensor features an innovative special adhesive film that helps reduce skin irritation
• Insertion is easy at the touch of a button, with a hidden needle when inserting and with a 90-degree insertion angle, for painless application.
• More reliable connection between sensor and transmitter, which can reduce the possibility of gaps in the recording data. In addition, in case of loss of connection between the sensor and the transmitter, the new Guardian ™ 2 Link transmitter can store data for up to 10 hours.
• Replaced every 5 days.
The Enlite ζ glucose sensor is only compatible with the Guardian ™ 2 Link MiniMed πο transmitter
