Introduction

The Guardian Sensor 3 is a component of Medtronic’s Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) system, designed to provide real-time glucose readings for individuals with diabetes. It continuously converts glucose levels from the interstitial fluid under the skin into electronic signals, offering insights into glucose trends and patterns.

Key Features of Guardian Sensor 3 :

Continuous Monitoring

The guardian 3 sensors checks your glucose levels every five minutes throughout the day. This means you get fresh, up-to-date information about your glucose levels without needing to test it manually. By doing this every five minutes, the sensor helps you stay informed about how your glucose levels are changing in real-time.

7 Days Wear

The Guardian Sensor 3 is built to be used continuously for up to seven days. This means you can wear it for an entire week to monitor your glucose levels without needing to replace it. After seven days, you need to replace the sensor to keep it working accurately.

Compatibility

The Guardian Sensor 3 is compatible with the Medtronic MiniMed 670G, 770G, and 780G insulin pump systems. Each system includes the MiniMed insulin pump, Guardian Link 3 transmitter, and the sensor, allowing continuous glucose monitoring and insulin delivery for improved diabetes management.

Data Sharing

The Guardian Sensor 3 allows users to share glucose data with up to 4 people through the CareLink Personal software. This lets family, caregivers, or healthcare professionals view data and receive alerts, improving diabetes management and keeping the support system informed. Data sharing can be set up via CareLink.

Accuracy Performance

The Guardian Sensor 3 has an accuracy performance of 8.7% MARD when compared to the CONTOUR NEXT LINK 2.4 Meter. MARD measures the average difference between the two devices’ glucose readings. A lower MARD indicates better accuracy, and 8.7% is considered a good level for continuous glucose monitoring systems.

Water Resistant

The guardian 3 sensors is water-resistant, enabling safe use during activities like showering and swimming. It can withstand being submerged up to 8 feet (2.4 meters) for up to 30 minutes. However, it is not fully waterproof, so it should not be submerged beyond this limit to avoid damage.

Conclusion

The guardian 3 sensors offers a comprehensive and reliable solution for diabetes management. It’s compatibility with leading medtronic insulin pumps, high accuracy, water-resistance, and the ability to share data with caregivers empowers users to take control of their glucose levels. Despite its cost, the sensor’s advanced features make it a valuable tool for individuals with diabetes, providing real-time insights, ease of use, and continuous support.
