MySentry Monitor
4 Introduction
User safety
This section describes all user safety information that you need to know regarding the use of your
MySentry system.
Indications
The MySentry system is indicated for the remote monitoring, within your home, of a single Medtronic
MiniMed Paradigm 523/723 sensor-enabled insulin pump.
The real-time glucose values provided by the Monitor, as received from the Paradigm 523/723 insulin
pump, are not intended to be used directly for making therapy adjustments. Rather, they provide an
indication that may require a confirmation fingerstick measurement. All therapy adjustments should
be based on measurements obtained using a home glucose monitor and not based on the value
displayed by the Monitor or Paradigm 523/723 insulin pump.
Contraindications
None known.
Warnings
MySentry is intended to act as a personal sentry for your loved ones, but it is not a substitute for
personal visual monitoring. Although MySentry has been designed and tested to meet or exceed the
latest industry standards as required by EN, FDA and Underwriters Laboratories, MySentry can be
susceptible to RF or electrical interference. Transmission of all data or alarms cannot be guaranteed
with MySentry. This product does not provide any medical advice and should not be relied upon for
such purpose.
Power supply
• MySentry notifies you if its power source (household current) fails. If this occurs, check pump data
directly from the insulin pump.
• Using an unqualified power supply may affect the operation of MySentry. Use only the Medtronic
MiniMed power supply, part number MMT-9103.
