Description
Key Features
Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) Capability: When paired with a FreeStyle Libre 3 sensor, the reader provides continuous, minute-by-minute glucose readings.
Real-time Glucose Readings: Displays current glucose levels at a glance, allowing for immediate awareness of glucose fluctuations.
Glucose Trend Data: Shows 8-hour historical glucose data and trend arrows, indicating whether glucose levels are rising, falling, or remaining stable. This helps users understand patterns and make proactive adjustments.
No Fingersticks (for most treatment decisions): Eliminates the need for routine fingerstick blood glucose tests for most treatment decisions, significantly reducing pain and inconvenience. Fingersticks are generally only required if symptoms don't match readings, or if the user suspects readings are inaccurate.
User-Friendly Interface: Features a touchscreen display and intuitive navigation for easy operation.
Data Storage: The reader can store up to 90 days of glucose data, enabling long-term tracking and analysis of glucose patterns by both the user and their healthcare team.
Compact and Portable: Its small size makes it easy to carry discreetly, allowing users to check their glucose levels anytime, anywhere.
Rechargeable Battery: Typically comes with a USB cable and power adapter for convenient charging.
Optional Alarms (when paired with a sensor): The FreeStyle Libre 3 system, when used with its sensor, offers optional real-time glucose alarms to alert users to high or low glucose levels.
Compatibility: While the 57599082000 specifically refers to the reader, it's part of a system that often includes compatibility with a smartphone app for viewing data and receiving alerts.

FreeStyle Libre 3 Reader
Alarm is annoying. It keeps giving an out of connection, but it gives a remote reading anyway. It's a little confusing. I think FreeStyle Libre 2 was a better unit in many ways.
