Description
World's Smallest and Thinnest Sensor: Exceptionally discreet, about the size of two stacked U.S. pennies, making it comfortable and unobtrusive to wear.
Extended Wear Time: Provides continuous glucose monitoring for up to 15 days per sensor, reducing the frequency of sensor changes.
Real-Time Glucose Readings: Automatically streams minute-by-minute glucose readings directly to a compatible smartphone app (FreeStyle Libre 3 app) or FreeStyle Libre 3 reader. This eliminates the need for routine fingerstick calibrations.
Optional Glucose Alarms: Users can set alarms to be notified if their glucose levels go too high or too low, providing immediate alerts for proactive management.
High Accuracy: Demonstrates high accuracy in glucose readings over its wear time, enabling reliable treatment decisions.
Wide Age Indication: Approved for use in people with diabetes aged 2 years and older, including during pregnancy.
Compatibility with Automated Insulin Delivery (AID) Systems: Designed to work with select automated insulin pumps for an integrated diabetes management experience.
Discreet Application: Applied to the back of the upper arm with a simple, disposable applicator, with most users reporting no pain during insertion.
Water Resistant: The sensor is water-resistant (IP27 rating), meaning it can withstand immersion in up to 1 meter of water for 30 minutes, allowing for showering while wearing it.
Environmentally Sustainable: Designed with a reduced total volume, leading to less plastic and paper waste compared to previous generations.
Uses
The Abbott FreeStyle Libre 3 Plus Sensor Kit is primarily used for:
Continuous Glucose Monitoring: Providing individuals with diabetes (Type 1 and Type 2) with a comprehensive and real-time understanding of their glucose trends throughout the day and night.
Diabetes Management: Empowering users and healthcare professionals to make informed decisions regarding insulin dosages, meal planning, exercise, and overall diabetes care based on real-time and historical glucose data.
Reducing Fingersticks: Significantly reducing or eliminating the need for painful and inconvenient fingerstick blood glucose tests for routine monitoring.
Identifying Glucose Patterns: Helping users and their healthcare providers identify patterns of hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) and hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) to optimize treatment strategies.
Improved A1C Levels: The FreeStyle Libre system can contribute to significant reductions in A1C levels, indicating better long-term glucose control.
Integration with Insulin Pumps: Its compatibility with AID systems allows for more automated and precise insulin delivery.
