Setting up CGM
This chapter explains how to pair your pump and transmitter, enter your sensor
settings, and set up CGM on your pump. You need the following:
• MiniMed 770G insulin pump
• Sensor glucose (SG) settings provided by your healthcare professional
•Guardian Sensor (3)
• Guardian Link (3) transmitter with Bluetooth wireless technology kit
WARNING: Do not make therapy treatment decisions based on
sensor glucose values. Sensor glucose (SG) and blood glucose (BG)
values may differ. If your sensor glucose reading is low or high, or if
you feel symptoms of low or high glucose, confirm your sensor
glucose reading with your BG meter prior to making therapy
decisions to avoid hypoglycemia or hyperglycemia.
Understanding CGM
The Sensor feature on the pump lets you integrate and use CGM. CGM is an SG
monitoring tool that uses a glucose sensor that is placed below your skin to
continuously measure the amount of glucose in your interstitial fluid. CGM helps
you better manage your diabetes in the following ways:
•It records your glucose values throughout the day and night.
• It shows the effects that your diet, exercise, and medication can have on your
glucose levels.
