to many steps to do … what if you are alone? it is impossible

If you live alone this is impossible for me to do. I can't run to a neighbor to ask them to apply a medical device for me. Also trying it by myself after years on meter it takes off the sensor. My legs and stomach are my choice. Any advice?

Two hours recharching the transmitter? As far as I know it is half an hour. Two hours is the warming up time of the new connected sensor.

So love the pump780 my sugars has been so out of whack for years lots of 300 plus now not even 200 gonna get my 1st A1C this week since got my pump

Agree 💯% let's talk about insulin pumps and CGM at airport security.

Let’s talk about pumps and cgms and airport security!

My son just started this new pump 4 days ago. Thank you for showing how simple it is to disconnect and restart.

Bu sensor bantları nerede bulabilirim seffaf olani

This video makes no sense to me. Who the heck is Barbie??? 🙄

Sensör bantları nereden temin edebiliriz

What a cluster!

24 years got type 1 @ 30 years old Pump for 4 months and after all those years went from double digits A1C to single digits for the first time. #impressed #gamechanger

Can I borrow Cheryl to do mine for the next few years? None of my friends have the time to drive twenty five miles once a week.

5 years ago I started using guardian 3. Worked perfectly, got the full 7 days almost every time. They switched me to the Guardian 4 earlier this year. I've had 5 sensor failures out of the last 7 sensors. When the Medtronics nurse updated me she knew because of disabilities it WOULD NEVER go on my arm. She recommended, you guessed it, using my abdomen. It gives great readings but never lasts more than 4 days. Medtronics has replaced the sensors, replaced the transmitter and it continues to fail over a year after this video was released. Ok, Medtronics show me how a 70 year old with spinal issues can insert this without help?

I'm not fond of the sensor either, very little body fat and my head doesn't swivel 270°. I did learn from my rep that a Libre style sensor has been approved in Europe and is before the FDA right now. Maybe they should say it prevents covid to speed it along . I just wish the sensor would last for 7 days. Usually after 5 I need to untape the transmitter, unplug it and restart it. The 7th day it recalibrates for 1.5 hrs and then shuts off.

The majority of the comments about the sensor are SPOT ON! Medtronic is not the new kid on the block when it comes to diabetic stuff but they behaved very much like that when they put together the CGM sensor application. I particularly agree with those comments that reflected how repulsive it is to have to have "assistance" to apply the sensor. BAHHHHHHH HUMBUG MEDTRONICS!

When can I get the guardian 4 sensors,was told it isn't covered by my insurance

Just started on the 780g and love the results. Have eliminated all lows which I got frequently. But sensor insertion process is totally ridiculous. Who thought that up? If I were an octopus it might be doable!!

Wo kann ich kaufen und was ist die Preis?

Type 1 diabetic 66 years and worked full time 40-72 hours a week for 48 years. My Mom diagnosed me, my brother and sister. We all have Type 1 diabetes.

Really horrible planning for humans with 2 arms only and live alone!!! What was Medtronic thinking??? WOW!!

Type 1 diabetic for 56 years .

Flexible spider hands or 1 patient company is required. (Not included in the package.)

We need a cure💙

Hi, Penny. We have some tips that might help: www.medtronicdiabetes.com/sites/default/files/library/download-library/workbooks/Tape%20Tips%20and%20Site%20Management.pdf. If not, you can always give our Technical Support team a call at 1-800-646-4633, option #1. Thank you.

I don’t get 7 days either the most I get is 5 days

Thank you! That made it easier than I thought! I have had Medtronic for several years and never inserted in my arm. ❤

I use the Sure-T and love it. I tried the extended wear, but am a creature of habit.

😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

😢eu gostaria muito de poder usar, mas aqui no Brasil o valor nao permite a todos usar .....😕😢

All CGMs be it freestyle libre or any other which put sensor behind arms are not accurate. There is a difference of almost 50unit readings(mostly on higher side) compared to traditional glucometer. 50unit difference is too much for accurately administrating insulin and has more chances of hypoglycemia. Hence, when ever in doubt use traditional glucometer

This is very tedious. I was about to opt for this device then saw many videos and met people using this mechanism. 1. Cost of device is prohibitively high. 2. The consumables are not readily available and you have depend on the OEM and their services are sub par in villages and remote areas. 3. No idea how to give 2 types of insulin in the same machine i.e long and short acting. There seems to be only 1 reservoir. 4. For people taking multiple dosage of 2different insulin. The cost of consumables also becomes high compared to pen type delivery. 5. The pen type insulin were supposed to be kept at a specific temp. as they become ineffective if kept beyond the permissible temp. I dont know how the insulin in this machine is kept at that low temp.

Comunque questi sensori Guardian 4 non funzionano durano molto meno di 7 giorni questi sono errori gravi che la medtronic non deve fare

What's that black cover you're putting over the transmitter?

I really wanted to like this and it worked for me on the first two sensors but I am now having trouble like I did with sensors on the 670G pump and they’re not working. They just keep saying “updating” and I am sure it’s something happening with insertion or something. Can’t figure out what the problem is

so inconvenient compared to other systems like Dexcom and Freestyle Libre.

Make it available in India too

Get with the program Medtronic stop using old technology... Get the Libre 2 or Libre 3 to talk to the 780g Medtronic Mini Med pump.

Love my 7 day set👍

Where is my Cheryl, I can't find her???

I would love to use this extended infusion set but sadly Medtronic India haven't released it yet and i am still using that outdated quick-set infusion set 😢

After 3 days I get very high glucose. I change my set every 48 hours. I've been Type 1 diabetic since age 8. I've been diabetic T1 for 66 years and worked 48 years full time & doing on calls every 6th weekends. So Glad to be retired now & collecting my social security and pension and still healthy!!!😅😂

I just started using ive used my senus within a wk

Bravo et merci ( thank you))

Is the abdomen or arm better for transmitter accuracy?

nice.
